What time is it in Piatra Neamt right now?

The time in Piatra Neamt, Romania is 11:38 pm, 23:38 on a 24 hour clock, on Friday November 6, 2026. The reading above ticks from your own device against the Europe/Bucharest rules, so it stays right through a clock change rather than drifting an hour out twice a year.

Piatra Neamt sits at 46.92 degrees north and 26.33 degrees east, well into the temperate belt and 5,217 km from the equator. Its clock is set to a zone whose nominal meridian is 30.0 degrees east, and the city itself is 3.7 degrees west of that line. Those 3.7 degrees are worth 14 minutes 40 seconds of sun time, which is most of why solar noon here lands at 11:58 am rather than on the stroke of twelve.

Moon phase over Piatra Neamt tonight

The moon is a waning crescent tonight, 27.2 days into its cycle and about 6% lit. The next full moon falls on November 24, 2026 at 4:53 pm Bucharest time, and the next new moon on November 9, 2026 at 9:01 am. Both are the same instant everywhere on Earth, printed here on the Piatra Neamt clock, which is why the calendar date can differ from the one a reader further east or west sees.

When the clocks change in Piatra Neamt

The next change is on Sunday, March 28, 2027, 141 days from now, when the clocks in Piatra Neamt go forward 1 hour at 2:59 am and the offset moves from UTC+2 to UTC+3.

Two things follow from that. Any standing call with Piatra Neamt shifts by an hour on that date unless the other side moves the same weekend, and every offset printed on this page is the offset for today rather than a fixed property of the city.

How far Piatra Neamt is from other cities

Great-circle distance, computed from the coordinates rather than road mileage. The nearest city we cover to Piatra Neamt is Bacau, Romania at 59 km, and the furthest is Lower Hutt, New Zealand at 17,445 km, which is 87% of the way to being exactly opposite.

The antipode of Piatra Neamt

Dig straight through the centre of the Earth from Piatra Neamt, Romania and you come out at 46.92 degrees south, 153.67 degrees west. That point is in the South Pacific Ocean. The nearest city in our catalogue to it is Lower Hutt, New Zealand, 2,570 km away from the antipode itself, where the clock currently reads 10:38 am on Saturday.

The antipode is worked out by flipping the latitude across the equator and swinging the longitude a half turn: 46.92 degrees north becomes 46.92 degrees south, and 26.33 degrees east becomes 153.67 degrees west. Two thirds of the planet is ocean and the land is unevenly spread, so most antipodes are open water: Piatra Neamt is no exception. The local time at the antipode runs close to UTC-10, roughly twelve hours from Piatra Neamt, because a half turn of longitude is a half turn of the day.

Sunrise and sunset in Piatra Neamt

Today the sun rises in Piatra Neamt at 7:04 am and sets at 4:52 pm, giving 9 hours 47 minutes of daylight. The dedicated page for this city carries the month by month table, the longest and shortest days of 2026, the golden and blue hour bands at both ends of the day, and all three twilight stages: sunrise and sunset times in Piatra Neamt.

Sun and moon in Piatra Neamt today

The sun is up in Piatra Neamt for 9 hours 47 minutes today, from 7:04 am to 4:52 pm. The moon rises in Piatra Neamt at 3:55 am and sets at 3:15 pm. The next phase is the new moon on November 9, 2026. It is 8% lit at the moment, a waning crescent, thinning by about 5.9 percentage points a day.

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.

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.

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.

Prayer times in Piatra Neamt

Seven days from November 6, 2026, computed for Piatra Neamt, Romania at 46.92 degrees north, 26.33 degrees east, on the clock of Europe/Bucharest. 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 Piatra Neamt, Romania, 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 Piatra Neamt

From Piatra Neamt, Romania the qibla is 152.2 degrees on a true compass, which is south-southeast, or 27.8 degrees west of due south. The Kaaba is 3,084 km away, 1,917 miles, measured over the surface of the Earth.

That figure is the initial bearing of the great circle from Piatra Neamt, Romania 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 Piatra Neamt, Romania 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.
