About the time in Paracuru
The zone identifier America/Fortaleza is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but America/Fortaleza keeps pointing at Fortaleza time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
Sunrise today lands at 05:39 and sunset at 05:39 local time, giving 12h 01m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (-3.41, -39.03) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Paracuru.
Paracuru sits at latitude -3.41, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 01m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
