About the time in Chongwe
Chongwe sits at latitude -15.36, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 11h 41m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Chongwe runs on Africa/Lusaka, which puts the city UTC +2 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.
Sunrise today lands at 06:17 and sunset at 05:59 local time, giving 11h 41m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (-15.36, 28.63) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Chongwe.
