About the time in San Rafael
San Rafael runs on America/Chihuahua, 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.
Sunrise today lands at 06:45 and sunset at 07:37 local time, giving 12h 53m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (26.68, -107.20) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in San Rafael.
