About the time in Lexington
Around 2,152 people live in Lexington, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
Lexington sits at latitude 35.02, in the mid-latitude band, so day length here swings noticeably between midwinter and midsummer — today's 13h 13m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 06:55 and sunset at 08:08 local time, giving 13h 13m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (35.02, -97.33) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Lexington.
