Time now in Canton

If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal Canton day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 14:00–22:00 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.

Sunrise today lands at 06:38 and sunset at 08:21 local time, giving 13h 43m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (43.30, -96.59) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Canton.

Canton sits at latitude 43.30, in the mid-latitude band, so day length here swings noticeably between midwinter and midsummer — today's 13h 43m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
