About these time zones

MDT: Mountain Daylight Time

Mountain Daylight Time is UTC−6.

Colorado, Utah, New Mexico, Wyoming, Montana and southern Idaho, plus Alberta, from March to November. Most of Arizona never uses MDT: it stays on MST all year.

MDT isn't in use at the moment: Mountain Time is on MST (UTC−7) until 14 March 2027. The times on this page follow the clocks, so they show MST.

EST: Eastern Standard Time

Eastern Standard Time is UTC−5.

New York, Florida, Georgia, the Carolinas, Ohio, Michigan and the rest of the East Coast, plus Ontario and Quebec in Canada. Panama, Jamaica and Cancún stay on EST all year. ET is the short form 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 2 hours all year.
