About Central Daylight Time (CDT)
Central Daylight Time (CDT, IANA: America/Chicago during DST window) is the summer-time variant of CST, set at UTC-5:00 — observed from the second Sunday in March to the first Sunday in November per the US Energy Policy Act of 2005. CDT shares the same UTC offset as Eastern Standard Time (EST), so during winter months Chicago/Dallas are one hour behind New York/Atlanta, but during summer months Chicago/Dallas are still one hour behind because both regions advance equally for DST. The 'spring forward / fall back' transition affects an estimated 311 million US residents annually per Census data. CDT is used in 16 US states partially or fully (Illinois, Texas, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Tennessee, Kansas, Nebraska, Oklahoma, North Dakota, South Dakota) and parts of Canada (Manitoba, western Ontario, Saskatchewan partial — Saskatchewan stays on CST year-round, an exception). Affects MLB season game scheduling, CME / CBOT commodity trading hours, and US-Canada-Mexico USMCA cross-border supply-chain handoffs.
About Eastern European Time (EET)
Eastern European Time (EET, IANA: Europe/Athens, Europe/Helsinki) is the civil time during winter for Eastern European countries, set at UTC+2:00. EET serves approximately 50 million people across: Bulgaria, Cyprus, Estonia, Finland, Greece, Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova, Romania, Ukraine (partial, since 1990), and parts of Russia's Kaliningrad exclave (USZ1 = UTC+2 year-round, no DST). EET observes Daylight Saving Time (switching to EEST = UTC+3) from the last Sunday of March to the last Sunday of October per EU Directive 2000/84/EC for EU member states; Ukraine and Moldova follow the same schedule but as non-EU members independently. Major EET cities: Athens (700K city, 3.7M metro), Helsinki (660K), Bucharest (1.7M), Sofia (1.3M), Riga (615K), Vilnius (590K), Tallinn (450K), Nicosia 320K), Kyiv (3M). The Russian portion of Ukraine after 2014 may use Moscow Time (MSK = UTC+3) per Russian government decree, while the Ukrainian government continues to use EET for the entire country.
