About the time in Rakvere
Sunrise today lands at 05:45 and sunset at 08:50 local time, giving 15h 06m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (59.35, 26.36) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Rakvere.
Rakvere runs on Europe/Tallinn, 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.
The zone identifier Europe/Tallinn is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but Europe/Tallinn keeps pointing at Tallinn time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
