About the time in San Carlos
Around 5 people live in San Carlos, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
Sunrise today lands at 06:16 and sunset at 07:01 local time, giving 12h 46m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (23.09, -99.08) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in San Carlos.
The zone identifier America/Monterrey is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but America/Monterrey keeps pointing at Monterrey time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
