Deprecated
This method should be used <em>lechumra</em> only since it returns a very late time, and if used <em>lekula</em> can result in <em>chillul Shabbos</em> etc. There is no current plan to remove this method from the API, and this deprecation is intended to alert developers of the danger of using it.
This method should be used lechumra only and returns the time of plag hamincha based on the opinion that the day starts at alos 16.1˚ and ends at . This is calculated as 10.75 hours zmaniyos after dawn. The formula used is 10.75 * shaahZmanis16Point1Degrees after alos16Point1Degrees. Since plag by this calculation can occur after sunset, it should only be used lechumra.
Return
the Date of the time of plag hamincha. If the calculation can't be computed such as northern and southern locations even south of the Arctic Circle and north of the Antarctic Circle where the sun may not reach low enough below the horizon for this calculation, a null will be returned.
