About these time zones

EDT: Eastern Daylight Time

Eastern Daylight Time is UTC−4.

New York, Florida, Georgia, the Carolinas, Ohio, Michigan and the rest of the East Coast, plus Ontario and Quebec, from March to November.

EDT isn't in use at the moment: Eastern Time is on EST (UTC−5) until 14 March 2027. The times on this page follow the clocks, so they show EST.

PST: Pacific Standard Time

Pacific Standard Time is UTC−8. PST is also used for Philippine Standard Time (UTC+8) and sometimes for Pakistan Standard Time (UTC+5). This page converts US Pacific Time.

California, Washington, Oregon and Nevada, plus British Columbia in Canada and Baja California in Mexico. PT is the short form people use for the whole zone.

How the difference changes

Both zones change their clocks on the same dates (next on 14 March 2027), so the difference stays 3 hours all year.
