About the time in Portland
Sunrise today lands at 06:52 and sunset at 08:33 local time, giving 13h 41m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (42.87, -84.90) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Portland.
Around 3,883 people live in Portland, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
Portland sits at latitude 42.87, 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.
