About the time in Polk County
Polk County sits at latitude 47.77, in the temperate-north band, so day length here swings sharply between midwinter and midsummer — today's 13h 50m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 06:33 and sunset at 08:23 local time, giving 13h 50m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (47.77, -96.40) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Polk County.
Polk County runs on America/Chicago, which puts the city UTC −5 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.
