About the time in Brighton
Around 2,945 people live in Brighton, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
Sunrise today lands at 06:15 and sunset at 07:25 local time, giving 13h 10m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (33.44, -86.95) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Brighton.
Brighton sits at latitude 33.44, in the mid-latitude band, so day length here swings noticeably between midwinter and midsummer — today's 13h 10m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
