About the time in Washington
Around 7 people live in Washington, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
Sunrise today lands at 06:10 and sunset at 06:05 local time, giving 11h 55m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (-6.89, -76.28) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Washington.
Clocks in Washington stay put all year. There is no summer-time switch to remember, so UTC −5 is what you will get in January and in July alike — useful if you book recurring calls with people in Peru.
