About the time in Funchal
Funchal sits at latitude 32.68, in the mid-latitude band, so day length here swings noticeably between midwinter and midsummer — today's 13h 10m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 07:35 and sunset at 08:45 local time, giving 13h 10m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (32.68, -16.92) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Funchal.
The zone identifier Atlantic/Madeira is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but Atlantic/Madeira keeps pointing at Madeira time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
