About the time in Rita
Sunrise today lands at 05:25 and sunset at 05:50 local time, giving 12h 25m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (10.46, -83.78) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Rita.
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal Rita day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 15:00–23:00 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.
Around 24,041 people live in Rita, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
