there are 2 apts, each with a line pointing to which way the windows face...i'm trying to figure out how much light the apt with the line in the center facing southwest will get...its hard to figure out cause the earth is on that like 22 degree axis etc




yellow lines...black is harder to tell

with trees and hills like NC has, it's hard to tell, and with a bunch of apartments too


a lone house in Kansas will get as much sun as one would get.

but its called southern exposure for a reason

i think i'm just gonna go scope it out at like various times in the day and see if sun is hitting the windows...thats probably the easiest way

It's going to depend on trees, the size of the windows, where the windows are positioned, etc etc.

South facing windows get more light if that helps at all.

The one that's more north, because its facing partially south.

Whenever the shade from the trees recedes far enough.
