About the time in La Cabecera
Sunrise today lands at 06:11 and sunset at 06:57 local time, giving 12h 47m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (22.96, -97.94) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in La Cabecera.
La Cabecera runs on America/Monterrey, which puts the city UTC −6 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.
The zone identifier America/Monterrey is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but America/Monterrey keeps pointing at Monterrey time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
