Montclair lies 41 km south-west of Washington D.C., so Dhuhr in Montclair comes roughly 1 minute later than in Washington D.C. This difference comes from longitude: every degree of longitude moves solar noon by about four minutes, and that is why the timetable of the capital is not accurate in Montclair.
