About the time in Sacramento
Sacramento sits at latitude 32.79, in the mid-latitude band, so day length here swings noticeably between midwinter and midsummer — today's 13h 08m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Around 58 people live in Sacramento, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal Sacramento 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.
