About the time in Mainz
Mainz sits at latitude 50.00, in the temperate-north band, so day length here swings sharply between midwinter and midsummer — today's 14h 07m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 06:26 and sunset at 08:33 local time, giving 14h 07m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (50.00, 8.27) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Mainz.
Mainz is on daylight saving time at the moment, which is why the offset reads UTC +2 instead of its winter value. Clocks go back on 25 October 2026, and anything scheduled across that date shifts by an hour.
