About the time in San Jose
The zone identifier America/Asuncion is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but America/Asuncion keeps pointing at Asuncion time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
Sunrise today lands at 06:58 and sunset at 06:23 local time, giving 11h 26m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (-25.70, -54.67) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in San Jose.
San Jose sits at latitude -25.70, in the mid-latitude band, so day length here swings noticeably between midwinter and midsummer — today's 11h 26m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
