About the time in Akkuş
Akkuş sits at latitude 40.81, in the mid-latitude band, so day length here swings noticeably between midwinter and midsummer — today's 13h 35m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 05:47 and sunset at 07:23 local time, giving 13h 35m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (40.81, 36.96) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Akkuş.
Clocks in Akkuş stay put all year. There is no summer-time switch to remember, so UTC +3 is what you will get in January and in July alike — useful if you book recurring calls with people in Turkey.
