In Gainesville, Florida it doesn’t seem to happen. I can safely say it is around 150 deg.
This experiment was done within a week from 1st October 2007.
Thank you RickB. To put my question more graphically, I will describe my experiment.

Step1: I stood facing the sun in the morning. I took a piece of paper and marked an arrow from my center towards the sun.
Step2: Return during sunset and do the same.
Step3: Now you have two arrows with an angle of separation between them
Step4: Measure this angle of separation. It doesn’t come out to be 180 deg.
