About the time in Cedar Falls
Cedar Falls sits at latitude 42.52, in the mid-latitude band, so day length here swings noticeably between midwinter and midsummer — today's 13h 40m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 06:23 and sunset at 08:03 local time, giving 13h 40m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (42.52, -92.45) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Cedar Falls.
Cedar Falls runs on America/Chicago, which puts the city UTC −5 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.
