What is midnight?

[RedViking]

That would make sense but the water has been off since some time this morning in Queensburgh, Northdene etc

Which is correct as well. That is why you can't say Midnight of a specific day. Because each day has two periods that is midnight. Early morning. Late night.

You HAVE TO give a time for something that is time critical.

Nuh-uh, in my world we measure things in smaller units than seconds (or minutes in your case)

But would your example not just be 1ms before midnight?

It's restored if you haven't been told, levels should rise from 8pm, they completed repairs early.

That's good to know, I'll go check. Been washing my hands with pool water. Again we aren't even on the list Queensburgh is on the list I just can't read

Which is interesting because we aren't even on the list

Of course we were, the northdene pump station is the main pumps for our side of Durban.

Well midnight is not time critical. And that is where the problem starts. Okay, I'll shutup now.

Quite right you are, I just re-read the list and Queensburgh is clearly listed. I can not read. Posts edited accordingly

Let's use the 24-hour clock..

That makes 24:00 Wednesday or 00:00 Thursday both midnight.. It certainly does not include the 10th as option 1 states..

The night of the transition from the 10th to the 11th.

But I see eclipses are also accepted. Was basically taught the above was for numeric, eclipse was more for language.

Almost got banned asking the same question. This is a trap.

Midnight - When is it exactly?

South Africa - National chaos recently erupted after a lockdown was announced from midnight on a Thursday because of a virus with flu like symptoms which threatens world wide populations. However, a MASSIVE argument around when midnight is caused a HUGE division between those who know and those...

He's here already, came out the woodwork for the controversy, people tired of the Palestine thread fights.

It's 2. They could have just phrased it as "24 hrs starting 12 October"

Midnight is a name for an iPhone color. Also the name of a Taylor Swift album.
