About the time in Puerto Rico
Clocks in Puerto Rico stay put all year. There is no summer-time switch to remember, so UTC −4 is what you will get in January and in July alike — useful if you book recurring calls with people in Dominican Republic.
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal Puerto Rico day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 13:00–21:00 UTC. Convert your own hours into UTC once and you can tell at a glance whether someone there is likely to be at their desk.
Puerto Rico sits at latitude 19.22, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 40m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
