About the time in Kanton St. Gallen
Sunrise today lands at 06:27 and sunset at 08:25 local time, giving 13h 58m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (47.25, 9.25) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Kanton St. Gallen.
Kanton St. Gallen runs on Europe/Zurich, which puts the city UTC +2 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.
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal Kanton St. Gallen day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 07:00–15:00 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.
