About the time in Santa Cruz
Santa Cruz sits at latitude 24.44, in the mid-latitude band, so day length here swings noticeably between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 47m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Around 30 people live in Santa Cruz, 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 05:45 and sunset at 06:32 local time, giving 12h 47m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (24.44, -106.65) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Santa Cruz.
