About the time in El Refugio
Sunrise today lands at 06:31 and sunset at 07:16 local time, giving 12h 44m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (21.81, -102.77) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in El Refugio.
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal El Refugio day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 15:00–23:00 UTC. Convert your own hours into UTC once and you can tell at a glance whether someone there is likely to be at their desk.
El Refugio sits at latitude 21.81, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 44m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
