How do time zones work with daylight savings?
The simplest way to remember "time zone math" for the states that recognize Daylight saving time is three-two-one: three hours difference from Eastern to Pacific, two hours difference from Eastern to Mountain, and one hour difference from Eastern to Central.
Does time zone difference change with daylight savings?
DST Starts at 2 am Local Time
Eastern time zones switch earlier than western time zones. For example, each DST change happens three hours earlier in New York than in Los Angeles.
How do you represent time zones?
Reference to a specific time and zone would follow standard guidelines with the zone in parentheses: 4:42 p.m. (PST), 11:03 a.m. (MDT), 2:30 p.m. (CST), 10:00 P.M. (EST). AP on the other hand advises to capitalize the full name of each time zone: Pacific/Mountain/Central/Eastern Standard Time.
