About the time in Chelsea
The zone identifier America/New_York is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but America/New_York keeps pointing at New York time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
Sunrise today lands at 05:57 and sunset at 07:37 local time, giving 13h 40m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (42.39, -71.03) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Chelsea.
Chelsea sits at latitude 42.39, 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.
