About the time in San Rafael
San Rafael runs on America/Merida, which puts the city UTC −6 from Coordinated Universal Time right now. The clock at the top of this page is not copied from your device: it is anchored to our reference timestamp and re-rendered every second against the IANA time zone database, so it stays right even when a laptop or phone has quietly drifted.
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal San Rafael 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.
Around 5 people live in San Rafael, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
