About the time in San Rafael
San Rafael sits at latitude 15.51, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 34m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 05:58 and sunset at 06:32 local time, giving 12h 34m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (15.51, -93.04) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in San Rafael.
Clocks in San Rafael stay put all year. There is no summer-time switch to remember, so UTC −6 is what you will get in January and in July alike — useful if you book recurring calls with people in Mexico.
