The reason is that as you are using ‘changes to’, after a short period the ‘changes to’ will become false and the tasks will cancel.
To stop this, click on the ‘with’ and then the settings cog at the bottom.
Now change Task Cancellation Policy (TCP) to never. A RED ‘N’ will appear in the piston next to the with.
Now when the ‘changes to’ becomes false, the tasks will not cancel and the timer will mature.

EDIT. Just for reference I see you are using variables for sunset and sunrise. There is an option available to select these from preset values and you do not need to use variables.
In your TIME parameter click on the value box and instead of selecting variable, select presets. The way you have it is the $sunrise variable will populate from today and not tomorrow. Not a big deal but something to consider.

@bobbles Thanks so much. I’ve been screwing that for a couple days. Much appreciation.
