About the time in Plainfield
Plainfield sits at latitude 43.53, in the mid-latitude band, so day length here swings noticeably between midwinter and midsummer — today's 13h 41m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 06:02 and sunset at 07:42 local time, giving 13h 41m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (43.53, -72.36) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Plainfield.
Plainfield runs on America/New_York, which puts the city UTC −4 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.
