About the time in Cardiff
Sunrise today lands at 06:25 and sunset at 05:28 local time, giving 11h 03m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (-32.94, 151.65) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Cardiff.
Cardiff runs on Australia/Sydney, which puts the city UTC +10 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.
Cardiff sits at latitude -32.94, in the mid-latitude band, so day length here swings noticeably between midwinter and midsummer — today's 11h 03m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
