About the time in Kildare
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal Kildare 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.
Sunrise today lands at 06:17 and sunset at 08:43 local time, giving 14h 26m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (53.17, -6.75) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Kildare.
Kildare runs on Europe/Dublin, which puts the city UTC +1 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.
