About GMT and EST
GMT is fixed at UTC+0 and never changes. The UK uses it only in winter and moves to BST, one hour ahead, from late March to late October.
Eastern Time covers New York, Washington, Miami and Atlanta. It is EST (UTC−5) in winter and EDT (UTC−4) from the second Sunday in March to the first Sunday in November. People often write EST all year; this page follows the clocks.
Comparing more than two places? Add as many cities as you need in the time zone converter. For timestamps from logs or APIs, the Unix timestamp converter turns them into readable dates, and the countdown timer counts down to an event in any time zone.
