About the time in Gander
Gander runs on America/St_Johns, which puts the city UTC −2:30 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.
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal Gander day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 11:30–19:30 UTC. Convert your own hours into UTC once and you can tell at a glance whether someone there is likely to be at their desk.
Sunrise today lands at 06:10 and sunset at 08:12 local time, giving 14h 02m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (48.96, -54.59) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Gander.
