About the time in Helen

Helen runs on America/New_York, which puts the city UTC −4 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.
Sunrise today lands at 06:46 and sunset at 08:11 local time, giving 13h 25m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (37.63, -81.31) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Helen.
