About the time in Garissa
Around 841,353 people live in Garissa, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
Sunrise today lands at 06:20 and sunset at 06:26 local time, giving 12h 07m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (-0.17, 40.04) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Garissa.
Garissa runs on Africa/Nairobi, 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.
