About the time in Bottineau
The zone identifier America/Chicago is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but America/Chicago keeps pointing at Chicago time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
Bottineau sits at latitude 48.82, in the temperate-north band, so day length here swings sharply between midwinter and midsummer — today's 14h 01m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 06:44 and sunset at 08:45 local time, giving 14h 01m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (48.82, -100.44) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Bottineau.
