About the time in Charlestown
Sunrise today lands at 05:55 and sunset at 06:29 local time, giving 12h 34m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (17.13, -62.62) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Charlestown.
Charlestown runs on America/St_Kitts, which puts the city UTC −4 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.
Charlestown sits at latitude 17.13, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 34m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
