About the time in Paltaniemi
Paltaniemi sits at latitude 64.28, in the high-latitude band, so day length here swings sharply between midwinter and midsummer — today's 15h 44m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 05:20 and sunset at 09:04 local time, giving 15h 44m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (64.28, 27.65) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Paltaniemi.
Paltaniemi is on daylight saving time at the moment, which is why the offset reads UTC +3 instead of its winter value. Clocks go back on 25 October 2026, and anything scheduled across that date shifts by an hour.
