About the time in Mahagalgamuwa
Mahagalgamuwa sits at latitude 8.00, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 20m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Mahagalgamuwa follows the civil time used across its region of Sri Lanka; there is no separate local reckoning inside the city.
Sunrise today lands at 06:01 and sunset at 06:21 local time, giving 12h 20m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (8.00, 80.29) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Mahagalgamuwa.
