About the time in Jelgava
Jelgava sits at latitude 56.65, in the temperate-north band, so day length here swings sharply between midwinter and midsummer — today's 14h 28m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Jelgava runs on Europe/Riga, which puts the city UTC +3 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.
Jelgava is on daylight saving time at the moment, which is why the offset reads UTC +3 instead of its winter value. Clocks go back on 25 October 2026, and anything scheduled across that date shifts by an hour.
