Vetluzhskiy prayer times overview
The Vetluzhskiy prayer schedule is calculated based on the city's local data, so it may differ from neighbouring localities even within the same time zone.
Vetluzhskiy prayer times are tied to the local time zone, which is Same as Moscow time (MSK). For this reason, the prayer schedule here cannot be directly compared with Moscow time.
Vetluzhskiy geographic location is 58.3902°N, 45.4654°E. These coordinates are important for calculating prayer times, since prayers are tied to the movement of the sun. At such a latitude, the seasonal difference between the summer and winter prayer schedules is felt more strongly.
Vetluzhskiy prayer times should be compared with another city carefully: a small difference in coordinates can change the start of a prayer by several minutes. In northern cities, the difference between the summer and winter schedules is usually stronger.

Questions about prayer times in Vetluzhskiy
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.
We update the schedule in Vetluzhskiy daily. The sun does not rise at the same time from day to day: the daylight length gradually increases from winter to summer and shortens from summer to winter. For this reason the Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha times shift slightly every day. The most noticeable changes occur in spring and autumn, so a daily check with the schedule is the best practice.
Yes, the schedule is suitable for determining the suhur and iftar times. The Fajr time (01:54) serves as a reference for ending the pre-dawn meal: suhur must be completed before it begins. The Maghrib time (20:07) 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.
It is better not to do this. Prayer times are calculated based on exact geographic coordinates, and even a relatively small distance between localities can shift the prayer moments by several minutes. The sunrise and sunset to which Fajr and Maghrib are tied occur at their own time at every point. Therefore, for believers in Vetluzhskiy it is more correct to rely on a separate schedule calculated according to this city's coordinates specifically, especially when determining suhur and iftar during Ramadan.
