OK, if you haven't edited the Sun position at all it will be directly overhead. Click and drag in the Edit dialog sky sphere to reposition. You'll see that the preview will update. Drag the sun to the edge of the sphere (horizon) and you'll see the sky preview color will change to sunset.

To see where the sun is in relation to your scene do a preview render so that you can see the shadows. Note that if you have other lights in your scene their shadows may confuse you so switch those off. NB. North-South is along the X axis.
