About the time in Southern Cross
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal Southern Cross day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 23:00–07:00 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 07:09 and sunset at 05:58 local time, giving 10h 49m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (-38.30, 142.40) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Southern Cross.
Southern Cross is on standard time today. The next clock change is due on 4 October 2026; meetings booked either side of it are the ones worth double-checking.
