Plainview lies 370 km north-east of Washington D.C., so Dhuhr in Plainview is called roughly 14 minutes earlier than in Washington D.C. This difference comes from longitude: each degree shifts solar noon by about four minutes, and that is why the timetable of the capital should not be used in Plainview.
