About the time in Acapulco
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal Acapulco day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 15:00–23:00 UTC. Convert your own hours into UTC once and you can tell at a glance whether someone there is likely to be at their desk.
Sunrise today lands at 06:42 and sunset at 07:35 local time, giving 12h 53m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (25.50, -106.46) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Acapulco.
Acapulco sits at latitude 25.50, in the mid-latitude band, so day length here swings noticeably between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 53m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
