What would day and night look like in a circumbinary system?

I've been thinking of using a binary model (a planet that rotates around two suns) for a possible story.

The specific model is a S-type planetary system, where the planet orbits the the primary star A (0.8 Mâ˜‰), while the secondary B (0.6 Mâ˜‰) orbits the primary at a distance of 385 AU. the planet orbits around primary A at a distance of 0.85 AU.

The question is: what would the day and night look like in a circumbinary system of this type, and how could its configuration significantly affect the climate and seasons of this planet?
