About the time in Harvard
Sunrise today lands at 06:09 and sunset at 07:46 local time, giving 13h 37m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (42.43, -88.62) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Harvard.
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal Harvard day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 14:00–22:00 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.
Harvard is on daylight saving time at the moment, which is why the offset reads UTC −5 instead of its winter value. Clocks go back on 1 November 2026, and anything scheduled across that date shifts by an hour.
