About the time in Lake Macquarie
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal Lake Macquarie day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 22:00–06:00 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 06:21 and sunset at 07:00 local time, giving 12h 40m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (-33.04, 151.53) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Lake Macquarie.
Around 200,796 people live in Lake Macquarie, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
