This nifty infographic shows you how to measure remaining daylight with your hand! Here’s how it works:
- 1. Face The Sun
Face the sun and extend your arm in front of you so that your palm faces toward you and your fingers are parallel to the horizon.
- 2. Position Your Index Finger
Position your index finger so that it rests just below the sun, and your pinky finger is parallel to the horizon.
- 3. Count The Number
Count the number of fingers it takes to reach the sun from the horizon. Each ascending finger represents 15 minutes until the sun sets.
- 4. If Space Allows
If space allows, line up your other hand directly below and continue counting. Each hand represents approximately one hour.
