About the time in San Mateo
Sunrise today lands at 06:14 and sunset at 06:01 local time, giving 11h 47m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (-12.50, -76.23) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in San Mateo.
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal San Mateo day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 14:00–22:00 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.
Around 49 people live in San Mateo, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
