Why do Shabbat times change every week?
Sunset shifts throughout the year as the Earth tilts on its axis, and the shift is larger the farther a city is from the equator. In Boca Raton, candle lighting and Havdalah can move by an hour or more between the shortest and longest weeks of the year.
Are these times accurate for the entire year?
Yes. All 53 weeks of 2021 are computed the same way, using the same algorithm as our weekly Boca Raton page. Daylight saving time is already reflected in the times shown.
