About the time in Est
Around 1,941,505 people live in Est, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
Est sits at latitude 12.06, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 28m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
The zone identifier Africa/Ouagadougou is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but Africa/Ouagadougou keeps pointing at Ouagadougou time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
