the height of the sun at local noon is 90° - <your latitude> + <sun's
declination>.
If you look at the declination table at
http://www.chabot.demon.nl/sundials/sunmeangmt.htm
you can easily find for any date the sun's height at local noon.

Hi:
I'm now at the point where the Sun is high enough that the rain gutter is
casting a shadow. To get the spot on the ceiling I'm going to need an
outside bracket for the mirror.
Can someone tell me the highest angle the Sun will have at Summer
Solistice for the next 4 years?
Lat: 39:11:24.5855 N
Lon: 123:09:50.4842
Ele: 890 feet
Thanks,
