About the time in Vaddakachchi
Vaddakachchi sits at latitude 9.37, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 23m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 05:59 and sunset at 06:22 local time, giving 12h 23m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (9.37, 80.46) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Vaddakachchi.
The zone identifier Asia/Colombo is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but Asia/Colombo keeps pointing at Colombo time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
