About the time in Taunton
Sunrise today lands at 06:37 and sunset at 08:16 local time, giving 13h 39m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (44.59, -96.06) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Taunton.
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal Taunton day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 14:00–22:00 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.
Taunton follows the civil time used across its region of United States; there is no separate local reckoning inside the city.
