About Eastern Daylight Time (EDT)
Eastern Daylight Time (EDT, IANA: America/New_York during DST window) is the summer-time variant of EST, set at UTC-4:00 — observed from the second Sunday in March to the first Sunday in November per the US Energy Policy Act of 2005. EDT shares the same UTC offset as Atlantic Standard Time (AST — observed year-round in Canadian Maritimes Nova Scotia/New Brunswick/PEI and in Caribbean Puerto Rico/USVI/Bermuda) and as Bolivia/Chile/Paraguay Standard Time. The 'spring forward' transition at 02:00 EDT in March is the largest single coordinated time change in human history, affecting ~150 million US East Coast residents simultaneously per US Census. Florida passed the Sunshine Protection Act in 2018 attempting to stay on EDT year-round, but it required US Congressional approval (US Code 15 §260a) which has not been granted as of 2024. EDT affects: US Federal Government tax-filing deadlines (IRS Form 1040 due 23:59 EDT on April 15), NFL Sunday Night Football scheduling, and US Supreme Court oral-argument schedules in DC.
About Hawaii Standard Time (HST)
Hawaii Standard Time (HST, IANA: Pacific/Honolulu) is the time zone for the State of Hawaii and the Aleutian Islands of Alaska west of 169.5°W. HST is UTC-10:00 year-round and does not observe Daylight Saving Time per Hawaii Revised Statutes §1-31 (Hawaii opted out of the Uniform Time Act of 1966). When the US mainland switches to Daylight Saving Time in March, the offset from Hawaii to the West Coast (Pacific Time) becomes 3 hours instead of the standard 2 hours. Honolulu sees solar noon at approximately 12:30 PM HST in summer. HST is the same offset as Cook Island Time (CKT) and Tahiti Time (TAHT) in French Polynesia, allowing easy mental conversion across the central Pacific. Time-sensitive activities affected by HST include Pacific tsunami warning system coordination per NOAA NTWC, US military operations from Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam, and the Mauna Kea astronomical observatories' nightly observing schedules.
