About the time in Oulu
Sunrise today lands at 05:21 and sunset at 09:21 local time, giving 15h 59m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (65.01, 25.47) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Oulu.
Oulu runs on Europe/Helsinki, 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.
Oulu sits at latitude 65.01, in the high-latitude band, so day length here swings sharply between midwinter and midsummer — today's 15h 59m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
