About the time in Moscow
Moscow runs on Europe/Moscow, which puts the city UTC +3 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.
Clocks in Moscow stay put all year. There is no summer-time switch to remember, so UTC +3 is what you will get in January and in July alike — useful if you book recurring calls with people in Russia.
Moscow sits at latitude 55.75, in the temperate-north band, so day length here swings sharply between midwinter and midsummer — today's 14h 41m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
