About the time in Panakanniya
Panakanniya sits at latitude 6.99, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 19m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 05:59 and sunset at 06:18 local time, giving 12h 19m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (6.99, 80.99) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Panakanniya.
Panakanniya 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.
