About the time in Lansing
Sunrise today lands at 06:40 and sunset at 08:04 local time, giving 13h 25m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (39.24, -94.90) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Lansing.
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal Lansing day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 14:00–22:00 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.
Lansing is on daylight saving time at the moment, which is why the offset reads UTC −5 instead of its winter value. Clocks go back on 1 November 2026, and anything scheduled across that date shifts by an hour.
