About the time in Jamaica
Sunrise today lands at 05:58 and sunset at 06:32 local time, giving 12h 33m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (16.30, -93.26) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Jamaica.
Around 13 people live in Jamaica, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
Jamaica sits at latitude 16.30, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 33m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
