How Puebla Keeps Time
Puebla keeps CST, UTC-6. The live clock normally synchronizes to the site time source and then applies the IANA rules for Puebla; until synchronization succeeds, it uses the device clock as a fallback. Daylight-saving changes are applied only where that zone actually observes them.
Puebla runs on the America/Mexico_City zone in the IANA time zone database, which is UTC-6 right now. There is no daylight saving here, so that offset holds all year and the difference to other places only changes when they move their own clocks.
The sun rises in Puebla at 6:30 am today and sets at 6:04 pm — 11 hours 34 minutes of daylight, with solar noon at 12:17 pm. Those times come from the city’s coordinates (19.04, -98.21), so they shift a little every day of the year.
On the two solstices, Puebla has about 13 hours 17 minutes of daylight in June and 10 hours 59 minutes in December. The difference is about 2 hours 18 minutes, which shows how strongly the local daylight cycle changes through the year.
CST is one of several zones in Mexico, so a time quoted for the country as a whole is not necessarily the time here. Check the city rather than the country when it matters.
