About the time in San Jose
Sunrise today lands at 07:03 and sunset at 06:32 local time, giving 11h 29m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (-23.89, -56.48) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in San Jose.
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal San Jose day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 12:00–20:00 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.
Clocks in San Jose stay put all year. There is no summer-time switch to remember, so UTC −3 is what you will get in January and in July alike — useful if you book recurring calls with people in Paraguay.
