About the time in Caracol
Caracol sits at latitude 8.43, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 21m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 06:19 and sunset at 06:40 local time, giving 12h 21m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (8.43, -81.80) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Caracol.
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal Caracol 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.
