About the time in Sonora
Sonora sits at latitude 37.52, 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 07:05 and sunset at 08:27 local time, giving 13h 22m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (37.52, -85.89) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Sonora.
The zone identifier America/New_York is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but America/New_York keeps pointing at New York time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
