About the time in Manchester
Around 109,565 people live in Manchester, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
Sunrise today lands at 05:58 and sunset at 07:40 local time, giving 13h 42m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (42.98, -71.44) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Manchester.
Manchester sits at latitude 42.98, in the mid-latitude band, so day length here swings noticeably between midwinter and midsummer — today's 13h 42m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
