About the time in Zapotal
Zapotal runs on America/Costa_Rica, which puts the city UTC −6 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.
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal Zapotal day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 15:00–23:00 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 05:32 and sunset at 05:55 local time, giving 12h 23m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (10.00, -85.30) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Zapotal.
