About these time zones
HST: Hawaii-Aleutian Standard Time
Hawaii-Aleutian Standard Time is UTC−10.
Hawaii, which doesn't use daylight saving time. The Aleutian Islands of Alaska use HST in winter and HDT in summer.
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.
Most places on Eastern Time are on EDT (UTC−4) right now, not EST. People still say "EST" all year, so the times on this page follow the clocks and show EDT until 1 November 2026.
How the difference changes
Right now EDT is 6 hours ahead of HST. From 1 November 2026, when US clocks go back, the difference becomes 5 hours. From 14 March 2027, when US clocks go forward, the difference becomes 6 hours.
