About the time in Candelaria
Sunrise today lands at 05:57 and sunset at 06:34 local time, giving 12h 37m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (17.23, -93.18) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Candelaria.
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal Candelaria 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.
Candelaria sits at latitude 17.23, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 37m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
