How the time difference changes
Depending on seasonal clock changes, LHST is 14 hours and 30 minutes ahead of EDT, LHDT is 15 hours ahead of EDT, or LHDT is 16 hours ahead of EST.
Depending on seasonal clock changes, working hours of 9:00 am to 5:00 pm in LHST correspond to 6:30 pm (previous day) to 2:30 am in EDT, working hours of 9:00 am to 5:00 pm in LHDT correspond to 6:00 pm (previous day) to 2:00 am in EDT, or working hours of 9:00 am to 5:00 pm in LHDT correspond to 5:00 pm (previous day) to 1:00 am in EST.Depending on seasonal clock changes, working hours of 09:00 to 17:00 in LHST correspond to 18:30 (previous day) to 02:30 in EDT, working hours of 09:00 to 17:00 in LHDT correspond to 18:00 (previous day) to 02:00 in EDT, or working hours of 09:00 to 17:00 in LHDT correspond to 17:00 (previous day) to 01:00 in EST.
