About the time in Ethel
Ethel sits at latitude 33.12, in the mid-latitude band, so day length here swings noticeably between midwinter and midsummer — today's 13h 09m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 06:26 and sunset at 07:35 local time, giving 13h 09m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (33.12, -89.47) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Ethel.
Ethel is on daylight saving time at the moment, which is why the offset reads UTC −5 instead of its winter value. Clocks go back on 1 November 2026, and anything scheduled across that date shifts by an hour.
