About the time in San Rafael
San Rafael runs on America/Mexico_City, 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.
Around 8 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.
Sunrise today lands at 05:58 and sunset at 06:37 local time, giving 12h 39m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (17.76, -93.66) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in San Rafael.
