About the time in County Durham
County Durham sits at latitude 54.78, in the temperate-north band, so day length here swings sharply between midwinter and midsummer — today's 14h 35m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 05:52 and sunset at 08:27 local time, giving 14h 35m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (54.78, -1.58) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in County Durham.
County Durham is on daylight saving time at the moment, which is why the offset reads UTC +1 instead of its winter value. Clocks go back on 25 October 2026, and anything scheduled across that date shifts by an hour.
