About the time in La Huasteca
La Huasteca sits at latitude 18.86, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 38m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 05:41 and sunset at 06:18 local time, giving 12h 38m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (18.86, -89.36) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in La Huasteca.
Clocks in La Huasteca stay put all year. There is no summer-time switch to remember, so UTC −6 is what you will get in January and in July alike — useful if you book recurring calls with people in Mexico.
