67 atlas cities
All these cities share a single civil time, yet the sun's true noon rarely matches the clock. Most West and Central African and Western European cities here lie west of the zone's meridian, so the sun peaks after clock noon; a smaller group further east, including Kinshasa, Brazzaville, N'Djamena, Budapest, Warsaw, Vienna, and Stockholm, sees solar noon arrive before the clock does.

A positive figure means the clock runs ahead of the sun — midday on the clock arrives before the sun reaches its highest point.
