About these time zones
Greenwich Mean Time (GMT)
Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) is the time at UTC+0. GMT and UTC show the same clock time; UTC is the scientific standard, while GMT is a time zone name. The United Kingdom and Ireland use GMT only in winter: in summer the UK switches to British Summer Time (BST, UTC+1) and Ireland to Irish Standard Time (IST, UTC+1).
Pacific Standard Time (PST)
Pacific Standard Time (PST) is UTC-8. California, Washington, most of Oregon and Nevada, most of British Columbia and Baja California use PST in winter and Pacific Daylight Time (PDT, UTC-7) from the second Sunday in March to the first Sunday in November. Yukon left Pacific Time in 2020 and now stays on UTC-7 all year.
