About the time in Buenos Aires
Buenos Aires sits at latitude 18.30, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 38m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 05:48 and sunset at 06:26 local time, giving 12h 38m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (18.30, -91.13) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Buenos Aires.
Buenos Aires runs on America/Merida, which puts the city UTC −6 from Coordinated Universal Time right now. The clock at the top of this page is not copied from your device: it is anchored to our reference timestamp and re-rendered every second against the IANA time zone database, so it stays right even when a laptop or phone has quietly drifted.
