About the time in Thornton
Sunrise today lands at 07:04 and sunset at 06:57 local time, giving 11h 53m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (-7.93, -14.42) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Thornton.
Thornton runs on Atlantic/St_Helena, which puts the city UTC +0 from Coordinated Universal Time right now. The clock at the top of this page is not copied from your device: it is anchored to our reference timestamp and re-rendered every second against the IANA time zone database, so it stays right even when a laptop or phone has quietly drifted.
The zone identifier Atlantic/St_Helena is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but Atlantic/St_Helena keeps pointing at St Helena time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
