Sunrise today lands at 06:05 and sunset at 08:51 local time, giving 14h 46m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (56.65, 23.71) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Jelgava.
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal Jelgava day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 06:00–14:00 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.
