About the time in Sarchí
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal Sarchí 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 05:28 and sunset at 05:52 local time, giving 12h 24m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (10.19, -84.30) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Sarchí.
Sarchí sits at latitude 10.19, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 24m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
