About the time in Richmond
Richmond sits at latitude 51.03, in the temperate-north band, so day length here swings sharply between midwinter and midsummer — today's 14h 14m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 06:32 and sunset at 08:46 local time, giving 14h 14m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (51.03, -114.11) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Richmond.
Richmond is on daylight saving time at the moment, which is why the offset reads UTC −6 instead of its winter value. Clocks go back on 1 November 2026, and anything scheduled across that date shifts by an hour.
