About the time in Hennepin County
Hennepin County sits at latitude 45.00, in the temperate-north band, so day length here swings sharply between midwinter and midsummer — today's 13h 43m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 06:25 and sunset at 08:08 local time, giving 13h 43m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (45.00, -93.48) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Hennepin County.
The zone identifier America/Chicago is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but America/Chicago keeps pointing at Chicago time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
