In Oslo (59.9° latitude), November 2026 has 30 days whose sun rises at 07:46 and sets at 16:15 on the 1st, and at 08:53 and 15:20 on the 30th. Mid-month the day lasts 7 h 23 min and the sun reaches 11° above the horizon. Even so, the UV index never reaches 3 at any point in the month: at this latitude and time of year, the ozone layer absorbs UVB before enough of it reaches the ground.
