Greater Portmore sits at latitude 17.95, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 39m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 05:51 and sunset at 06:30 local time, giving 12h 39m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (17.95, -76.91) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Greater Portmore.
