About the time in Patu
Patu sits at latitude -6.12, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 11h 57m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Patu runs on America/Fortaleza, 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.
Clocks in Patu stay put all year. There is no summer-time switch to remember, so UTC −3 is what you will get in January and in July alike — useful if you book recurring calls with people in Brazil.
