About the time in El Alacrán
The zone identifier America/Mazatlan is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but America/Mazatlan keeps pointing at Mazatlan time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
Sunrise today lands at 05:41 and sunset at 06:28 local time, giving 12h 47m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (22.47, -105.42) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in El Alacrán.
Clocks in El Alacrán stay put all year. There is no summer-time switch to remember, so UTC −7 is what you will get in January and in July alike — useful if you book recurring calls with people in Mexico.
