Priozersk prayer times overview
The Priozersk page shows prayer times calculated taking into account local time and geographic location. This is especially important for Fajr, Maghrib and Isha.
The Priozersk prayer schedule is calculated according to the city's time zone: it is Same as Moscow time (MSK). Even with the same date, prayer times may differ from other regions.
Priozersk coordinates: 61.0403°N and 30.1392°E. Latitude affects the length of day and night, while longitude affects the actual position of the sun relative to local time. This latitude is close to the white nights zone, so in summer the interval between Maghrib and Fajr may shrink considerably.
The prayer schedule does not depend only on the region's official time. It is affected by the sun's altitude above the horizon, so in neighbouring cities the Fajr, Dhuhr and Maghrib values may differ. During the period of bright nights, it is especially important to monitor the Fajr and Isha times carefully.
The daytime interval in Priozersk today is 16 часов 39 минут — from sunrise at 04:45 to Maghrib at 21:24. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
In Priozersk the period from Maghrib (21:24) to Fajr (02:48) lasts 5 часов 24 минуты. The night is very short, so the time for Isha, Witr and suhur is limited.
In summer in Priozersk there may be very bright nights: for this reason the Isha and Fajr times require special attention.
Bright summer nights are typical for Priozersk. During this period Isha may begin late, while Fajr may be early, so it is advisable to check the schedule daily.
Three times are especially important for daily practice in Priozersk: Fajr — 02:48, Maghrib — 21:24 and Isha — 23:14. They help to correctly distribute morning, evening and night activities.

Questions about prayer times in Priozersk
Each city has its own geographic coordinates, and it is precisely by them that sunrise and sunset are calculated. Because the Earth rotates and its axis is tilted, prayer times at different points cannot coincide. Latitude determines the length of day and night, longitude determines the moment the sun passes certain positions, and the time zone brings the calculation to local time. The sum of these factors makes the schedule unique for each city.
The prayer schedule in Priozersk is recalculated daily, because the position of the sun changes throughout the year. The daylight length gradually increases in spring and shortens in autumn, so the Fajr and Maghrib times shift literally every day. The fastest changes occur during the spring and autumn equinoxes. Therefore, we recommend checking with the current data daily.
Yes, the schedule is suitable for determining the suhur and iftar times. The Fajr time (02:48) serves as a reference for ending the pre-dawn meal: suhur must be completed before it begins. The Maghrib time (21:24) indicates the moment of iftar — the fast is broken precisely at sunset. Nevertheless, during the blessed month of Ramadan we advise checking the current values daily, since a difference of just a few minutes can be important while fasting.
The location of Priozersk at northern latitudes creates difficulty for the standard calculation. In the summer season the sun does not descend deep enough below the horizon, so the astronomical night becomes extremely short or entirely bright — the natural boundaries of Fajr and Isha cannot be determined in the usual way. Therefore, for such cities, a specially developed high-latitude adjustment is applied when setting the morning and night prayer times.
