About the time in Nawalahena
Nawalahena sits at latitude 6.31, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 18m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 06:02 and sunset at 06:19 local time, giving 12h 18m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (6.31, 80.56) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Nawalahena.
Nawalahena runs on Asia/Colombo, which puts the city UTC +5:30 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.
