About the time in Silves
Silves sits at latitude 37.22, in the mid-latitude band, so day length here swings noticeably between midwinter and midsummer — today's 13h 22m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 06:55 and sunset at 08:17 local time, giving 13h 22m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (37.22, -8.44) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Silves.
Silves is on daylight saving time at the moment, which is why the offset reads UTC +1 instead of its winter value. Clocks go back on 25 October 2026, and anything scheduled across that date shifts by an hour.
