Coordinated Universal Time

Offset: UTC is the same as Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).

Countries using this time zone: Antarctica, Burkina Faso, Faroe Islands, Gambia, Ghana, Greenland, Guernsey, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Iceland, Ireland, Isle of Man, Ivory Coast, Jersey, Liberia, Mali, Mauritania, Morocco, Portugal, Saint Helena, São Tomé and Príncipe, Senegal, Sierra Leone, Spain, Togo, United Kingdom, Western Sahara

Principal Cities: The largest city in the UTC time zone is London in the United Kingdom, with about 8.962 million people. Other major cities in this time zone include Abidjan, Bamako, Casablanca, Dakar.

Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) is the world time standard that regulates clocks and time. It is the successor to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). For casual use, UTC is the same as GMT, but UTC is the standard the scientific community uses.
UTC has been the time standard commonly used across the world since 1972. It is used in many technical fields, such as aviation and meteorology, and to synchronize time across internet networks.

Greenwich Mean Time

Offset: GMT is the same as Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).

Countries using this time zone: Antarctica, Burkina Faso, Gambia, Ghana, Greenland, Guernsey, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Iceland, Ireland, Isle of Man, Ivory Coast, Jersey, Liberia, Mali, Mauritania, Morocco, Saint Helena, São Tomé and Príncipe, Senegal, Sierra Leone, Togo, United Kingdom, Western Sahara

Principal Cities: The largest city in the GMT time zone is London in the United Kingdom, with about 8.962 million people. Other major cities in this time zone include Abidjan, Bamako, Casablanca, Dakar.

Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) originally referred to the mean solar time at the Royal Observatory in Greenwich, London. It is now often used to refer to Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) when this is viewed as a time zone, and in casual use the two are the same. In the military, GMT is known as Zulu time. Greenwich Mean Time was the same as Universal Time (UT), a standard astronomical concept used in many technical fields, until the introduction of UTC in 1972.

Central Time

Central Time (CT) is a general term used to describe the areas that observe either the Central Standard Time (CST) or Central Daylight Time (CDT) in the United States and Canada. CT is not static but switches between CDT and CST.

Territories observing the time zone are primarily in North and Central America. It runs through several Mexican and U.S. states, as well as several Canadian provinces and Central American countries.

Countries using this time zone: Belize, Canada, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, United States

Principal Cities: The largest city in the CT time zone is Mexico City in Mexico, with about 12.294 million people. Other major cities in this time zone include Chicago, Houston, Puebla, Santiago de Querétaro.

Eastern Time

Eastern Time (ET) is a general term used to describe the areas that observe either the Eastern Standard Time (EST) or Eastern Daylight Time (EDT) in the United States and Canada. ET is not static but switches between EDT and EST.

ET is also used somewhat as a de facto official time for all of the United States because it encompasses 17 U.S. states in the eastern part of the contiguous United States including the capital city Washington D.C., the most populous city New York and half of the country’s population.

In the United States nationally televised programs, evening newscasts, talent and awards shows, and any other nationally televised event that airs live on American television during prime time and on the weekends are broadcast live in the Eastern Time Zone. Major professional sports leagues MLB, NBA, NFL and NHL also provide their game times in Eastern Time, even if teams are from outside of Eastern Time.

Countries using this time zone: Bahamas, Canada, Cayman Islands, Haiti, Jamaica, Mexico, Panama, Turks and Caicos Islands, United States

Principal Cities: The largest city in the ET time zone is New York City in the United States, with about 8.804 million people. Other major cities in this time zone include Toronto, Montréal, Philadelphia, Port-au-Prince.
