About the time in Montevideo
Montevideo follows the civil time used across its region of United States; there is no separate local reckoning inside the city.
Sunrise today lands at 06:34 and sunset at 08:17 local time, giving 13h 43m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (44.95, -95.72) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Montevideo.
The zone identifier America/Chicago is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but America/Chicago keeps pointing at Chicago time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
