About the time in San Salvador
Around 113 people live in San Salvador, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
San Salvador sits at latitude 22.35, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 43m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 06:25 and sunset at 07:08 local time, giving 12h 43m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (22.35, -101.06) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in San Salvador.
