About the time in Eastern District
Eastern District sits at latitude 38.62, in the mid-latitude band, so day length here swings noticeably between midwinter and midsummer — today's 13h 23m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 06:38 and sunset at 08:01 local time, giving 13h 23m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (38.62, -79.25) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Eastern District.
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.
