About time zones

The world is divided into 24 main time zones, each with a one-hour difference from the previous one. However, some regions use 30 or 45-minute offsets (like India with UTC+5:30). Additionally, many countries observe daylight saving time (DST), advancing clocks by one hour during certain months.

The United States spans multiple time zones, from Eastern (UTC-5) to Pacific (UTC-8) and beyond. Most states observe DST, while Arizona and Hawaii do not.

Frequently asked questions

Does the US observe daylight saving time?

Most of the US observes daylight saving time (DST), switching clocks forward in spring and back in fall. However, Arizona and Hawaii do not observe DST.

What is UTC?

UTC (Coordinated Universal Time) is the world standard for measuring time. Time zones are expressed as differences from UTC (e.g., UTC-5 for Eastern US, UTC+9 for Japan).

Why do some zones have two offsets?

Countries that observe daylight saving time (DST) change their offset during certain months. For example, New York is UTC-5 in winter and UTC-4 in summer.
