About latitude comparisons

When comparing cities at the same latitude, such as Palmer and its global counterparts, it is important to remember that while they share identical daylight hours and similar solar angles throughout the year, their climates may differ drastically. Factors including elevation, proximity to oceans, and dominant wind patterns shape the local environment just as much as solar positioning.

The results shown here are cities located within ±0.5 degrees of Palmer's parallel (61.60°), which covers roughly 55 kilometers (34 miles) north or south of its exact coordinate.

Frequently asked questions

What is the longitude of Palmer?

Palmer is located at longitude 149.1146° W. Among cities within ±0.5° of the same meridian, Faaa (French Polynesia), at 149.6035° W in the Southern Hemisphere.

How close are these cities to Palmer’s latitude?

Each listed city has a stored latitude between 61.10° and 62.10°, the ±0.5° matching band around Palmer.

Does this map show exact city boundaries?

No. Map markers and latitude values use city reference coordinates. They help compare locations on a parallel, but do not represent municipal boundaries.

Do these cities share the same climate?

Not necessarily. Latitude is only one influence on climate; altitude, coastlines, ocean currents and local terrain also matter.
