About the time in East Grand Forks
The zone identifier America/Chicago is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but America/Chicago keeps pointing at Chicago time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
Sunrise today lands at 06:31 and sunset at 08:31 local time, giving 14h 00m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (47.93, -97.02) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in East Grand Forks.
East Grand Forks sits at latitude 47.93, in the temperate-north band, so day length here swings sharply between midwinter and midsummer — today's 14h 00m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
