Adelaide: Adelaide is the capital and most populous city of South Australia, as well as the fifth-most populous city in Australia. The name "Adelaide" may refer to either Greater Adelaide or the Adelaide city centre; the demonym Adelaidean is used to denote the city and the residents of Adelaide. The traditional owners of the Adelaide region are the Kaurna, with the name Tarndanya referring to the area of the city centre and surrounding Park Lands, in the Kaurna language. Adelaide is situated on the Adelaide Plains north of the Fleurieu Peninsula, between the Gulf St Vincent in the west and the Mount Lofty Ranges in the east. Its metropolitan area encompasses over 430 suburbs, extending 96 km (60 mi) from Gawler in the north to Sellicks Beach in the south and 20 km (12 mi) from the western coast to the eastern foothills of the Mount Lofty Ranges.
Observes daylight saving time. Civil clocks shift forward by one hour during the local summer, swinging between standard UTC+09:30 and summer UTC+10:30. Transitions follow the IANA zone Australia/Adelaide.
Adelaide is listed in the dataset snapshot as 9.5 hours ahead of UTC (offset +09:30). 8.5 hours ahead of London, 0.5 hours ahead of Tokyo.
Geographically at longitude 138.60°, Adelaide's mean solar noon falls about 16 minutes after civil 12:00 under the sampled +09:30 civil offset; during the alternate seasonal offset this shifts by about one hour on the clock — local sunrise and sunset run later on the clock than they would on true solar time.
Adelaide sits at 34.93°S in the southern hemisphere — daylight runs roughly 9 hours 39 minutes on the December solstice and about 14 hours 21 minutes on the June solstice.

Adelaide is the capital and largest city of the Australian state of South Australia, with a metropolitan population of roughly 1.4 to 1.5 million. It observes Australian Central Standard Time (ACST, UTC+9:30) and shifts to Australian Central Daylight Time (ACDT, UTC+10:30) during daylight saving, which runs from the first Sunday in October to the first Sunday in April. The half-hour offset makes Adelaide one of the best-known cities on an unusual fractional time zone. Founded in 1836 as a planned, freely settled British colony rather than a penal one, Adelaide was laid out by Colonel William Light on a grid surrounded entirely by parklands, a design that still defines the city centre. It lies on the Adelaide Plains between the Gulf St Vincent and the Mount Lofty Ranges, and is a noted centre for wine, defence industries, and festivals.
