About the time in Cerro Prieto
Cerro Prieto sits at latitude 22.23, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 45m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Cerro Prieto runs on America/Mexico_City, which puts the city UTC −6 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.
The zone identifier America/Mexico_City is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but America/Mexico_City keeps pointing at Mexico City time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
