About the time in Monterrey
The zone identifier America/Mexico_City is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but America/Mexico_City keeps pointing at Mexico City time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
Sunrise today lands at 05:57 and sunset at 06:29 local time, giving 12h 32m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (15.39, -92.70) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Monterrey.
Monterrey runs on America/Mexico_City, which puts the city UTC −6 from Coordinated Universal Time right now. The clock at the top of this page is not copied from your device: it is anchored to our reference timestamp and re-rendered every second against the IANA time zone database, so it stays right even when a laptop or phone has quietly drifted.
