Moon phase over Paco do Lumiar tonight
The moon is a waning gibbous tonight, 17.2 days into its cycle and about 94% lit. The next full moon falls on October 26, 2026 at 1:11 am Fortaleza time, and the next new moon on October 10, 2026 at 12:49 pm. Both are the same instant everywhere on Earth, printed here on the Paco do Lumiar clock, which is why the calendar date can differ from the one a reader further east or west sees.
When the clocks change in Paco do Lumiar
There is no clock change scheduled in America/Fortaleza within the next 400 days, so Paco do Lumiar stays at UTC-3 for the whole of that stretch.
That makes Paco do Lumiar an easy city to schedule against: a meeting fixed at a given hour here holds its relationship to UTC all year, and only the other end of the call can move.

The antipode of Paco do Lumiar
Dig straight through the centre of the Earth from Paco do Lumiar, Brazil and you come out at 2.53 degrees north, 135.89 degrees east. That point is near Manokwari, Indonesia. The nearest city in our catalogue to it is Manokwari, Indonesia, 429 km away from the antipode itself, where the clock currently reads 4:48 pm on Monday.
The antipode is worked out by flipping the latitude across the equator and swinging the longitude a half turn: 2.53 degrees south becomes 2.53 degrees north, and 44.11 degrees west becomes 135.89 degrees east. Two thirds of the planet is ocean and the land is unevenly spread, so most antipodes are open water: Paco do Lumiar is one of the exceptions, with dry land on the far side. The local time at the antipode runs close to UTC+9, roughly twelve hours from Paco do Lumiar, because a half turn of longitude is a half turn of the day.
Sunrise and sunset in Paco do Lumiar
Today the sun rises in Paco do Lumiar at 5:43 am and sets at 5:51 pm, giving 12 hours 7 minutes of daylight.

Sun and moon in Paco do Lumiar today
The sun is up in Paco do Lumiar for 12 hours 7 minutes today, from 5:43 am to 5:51 pm. The moon sets in Paco do Lumiar at 6:59 am and comes up again at 7:32 pm. The next phase is the last quarter on October 3, 2026. It is 95% lit at the moment, a waning gibbous, thinning by about 4.5 percentage points a day.
| Sun | Time in Paco do Lumiar |
|---|---|
| Astronomical dawn | 4:35 am |
| Nautical dawn | 4:59 am |
| Civil dawn | 5:23 am |
| Sunrise | 5:43 am |
| Solar noon | 11:47 am |
| Sunset | 5:51 pm |
| Civil dusk | 6:11 pm |
| Nautical dusk | 6:35 pm |
| Astronomical dusk | 7:00 pm |
Twilight is graded by how far the sun has dropped below the horizon. Civil twilight ends six degrees down, which is roughly the point at which you need a light to read outside. Nautical twilight ends at twelve degrees, when the horizon at sea stops being usable for a sextant sight. Astronomical twilight ends at eighteen degrees, which is full darkness for an observer.
| Light band | Time in Paco do Lumiar | Length |
|---|---|---|
| Morning blue hour | 5:23 am to 5:31 am | 0h 08m |
| Morning golden hour | 5:31 am to 6:11 am | 0h 40m |
| Evening golden hour | 5:23 pm to 6:03 pm | 0h 40m |
| Evening blue hour | 6:03 pm to 6:11 pm | 0h 08m |
Golden hour is the stretch with the sun between six degrees above the horizon and four below it, and blue hour runs from there down to six degrees below. Neither is literally an hour: each is as long as the sun takes to cross those few degrees, which is minutes near the equator and can be most of the evening at high latitude.
| Moon | Reading in Paco do Lumiar |
|---|---|
| Moonrise | 7:32 pm |
| Moonset | 6:59 am |
| Phase | waning gibbous, waning |
| Illumination | 95% of the disc lit |
| Moon age | 17.5 days since the new moon |
| Distance | 373,200 km |
Moonrise and moonset are computed to the moment the moon's upper edge touches a flat horizon, allowing for refraction, for the size of the disc and for the moon's parallax, which together put the centre of the moon at 0.125 degrees above the horizon at the instant it rises. That is a different horizon from the one sunrise uses, and it is why a moonrise time cannot be worked out with a sunrise formula.

A meeting across this set has to be early or late for somebody.
Prayer times in Paco do Lumiar
Seven days from September 28, 2026, computed for Paco do Lumiar, Brazil at 2.53 degrees south, 44.11 degrees west, on the clock of America/Fortaleza. The method is Muslim World League (Muslim World League, Mecca), which puts Fajr at 18.0 degrees below the horizon and Isha at 17.0 degrees. Asr uses the Standard shadow ratio of 1, which is the Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali position.

Dhuhr is solar noon at Paco do Lumiar, Brazil, the instant the Sun crosses the local meridian, so it moves with longitude inside the time zone and with the equation of time through the year rather than sitting at a fixed clock reading. Sunrise and Maghrib are the standard refracted horizon, the same 0.833 degrees every almanac uses. Every figure above is computed from the Sun's position for this exact coordinate; none of it is copied from a table.
Different methods disagree, and that is expected rather than an error. Fajr under ISNA at 15 degrees comes later than Fajr under Egyptian General Authority of Survey at 19.5 degrees, by twenty minutes or more depending on latitude and season. Follow whichever your local mosque follows.
Qibla direction from Paco do Lumiar
From Paco do Lumiar, Brazil the qibla is 68.3 degrees on a true compass, which is east-northeast, or 21.7 degrees north of due east. The Kaaba is 9,484 km away, 5,893 miles, measured over the surface of the Earth.
That figure is the initial bearing of the great circle from Paco do Lumiar, Brazil to 21.4225 degrees north, 39.8262 degrees east, which is the Kaaba inside Masjid al-Haram.
The bearing is measured from true north, not magnetic north. A magnetic compass points at the magnetic pole, and the difference between the two can be anything from nothing to more than twenty degrees depending where you are, so check your compass reading against magnetic declination for Paco do Lumiar, Brazil before you use it. A phone compass set to true north, or the shadow of a vertical stick at local solar noon, avoids the problem entirely.
Put a Paco do Lumiar clock on your site
A live clock showing the current time in Paco do Lumiar, Brazil, ready to paste into any page that accepts HTML. It reads America/Fortaleza from the time zone database, so it stays right when Paco do Lumiar changes its clocks, and it shows UTC-3 to every visitor wherever they are reading from. It is a plain iframe: no account, no script to install, nothing to pay.
The box needs 183 pixels of height for these settings, which is what the code above sets, and the numbers show at full size from 305 pixels of width up. Narrower than that they scale down rather than wrapping, and turning a line off makes the box shorter. The code updates with either.
