About the time in El Zancudo
Clocks in El Zancudo stay put all year. There is no summer-time switch to remember, so UTC −5 is what you will get in January and in July alike — useful if you book recurring calls with people in Panama.
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal El Zancudo day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 14:00–22:00 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.
Sunrise today lands at 06:18 and sunset at 06:36 local time, giving 12h 19m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (7.77, -81.30) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in El Zancudo.
