About the time in Fargo
Around 105,549 people live in Fargo, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
Fargo sits at latitude 46.87, in the temperate-north band, so day length here swings sharply between midwinter and midsummer — today's 13h 56m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 06:32 and sunset at 08:28 local time, giving 13h 56m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (46.87, -96.83) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Fargo.
