About the time in Forquilha

Forquilha runs on America/Fortaleza, which puts the city UTC −3 from Coordinated Universal Time right now. The clock at the top of this page is not copied from your device: it is anchored to our reference timestamp and re-rendered every second against the IANA time zone database, so it stays right even when a laptop or phone has quietly drifted.
Forquilha sits at latitude -3.83, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 00m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
