About the time in Hereford
Hereford sits at latitude 52.06, in the temperate-north band, so day length here swings sharply between midwinter and midsummer — today's 14h 20m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 06:04 and sunset at 08:24 local time, giving 14h 20m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (52.06, -2.71) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Hereford.
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal Hereford day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 08:00–16:00 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.
