About the time in San Diego
Sunrise today lands at 06:09 and sunset at 06:59 local time, giving 12h 50m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (25.38, -97.94) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in San Diego.
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal San Diego 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.
San Diego sits at latitude 25.38, in the mid-latitude band, so day length here swings noticeably between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 50m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
