About the time in Turkana
Clocks in Turkana stay put all year. There is no summer-time switch to remember, so UTC +3 is what you will get in January and in July alike — useful if you book recurring calls with people in Kenya.
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal Turkana day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 06:00–14:00 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 06:35 and sunset at 06:47 local time, giving 12h 12m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (3.20, 35.47) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Turkana.
