ha-sun2: Sun_Phase Sensor not updating correctly

For a couple of days my sun phase sensor has been failing to update correctly in the morning.

It is just missing out some of the phases, I still get updates at noon and in the evening, but its staying at night until solar noon. Error log:

This error originated from a custom integration.

Many thanks for sorting this out, it is a key part of all my lighting controls so is very important to me.

I found the problem. I’m working on a fix. I hope to release a beta version with the fix soon.
