A live, animated world clock showing the current time in all US time zones (including Texas) and major cities around the globe. Type any city in the world into the search box and a live clock is generated instantly. Each clock updates every second with a real-time analog and digital display, plus a day or night sky that matches local time — accurate and DST-aware worldwide.
💡 Type any city in the world — your own town or anywhere else — to instantly see its current local time, date and time zone. Try your city now.
Times are calculated in your browser using the IANA time-zone database and automatically account for Daylight Saving Time. The sky color of each clock reflects whether it is dawn, day, dusk, or night in that city right now.
This world clock shows the exact current time in all six US time zones — Eastern (ET), Central (CT), Mountain (MT), Pacific (PT), Alaska (AKT), and Hawaii (HST) — alongside major financial and cultural capitals worldwide. Every clock is live and updates each second, with a smooth analog sweep and a digital readout in both 12-hour and 24-hour styles. Because the times are computed from your device using the IANA time-zone database, Daylight Saving Time is handled automatically: when the US springs forward on March 8, 2026 or falls back on November 1, 2026, these clocks adjust without any action from you.
The colored sky behind each clock is a quick visual cue for local conditions: a warm pink glow means dawn, a bright blue sky means daytime business hours, an orange-violet gradient means dusk, and a deep indigo with stars means night. That makes it easy to tell at a glance whether it is a reasonable hour to call a colleague in London, a client in Tokyo, or family in Sydney. Use the search box to jump to any city, or filter to just US zones for domestic scheduling.
ET, CT, MT, PT, Alaska, and Hawaii shown together. The Eastern–Pacific gap is a constant 3 hours year-round, so 9 AM in New York is 6 AM in Los Angeles. Hawaii and most of Arizona never observe DST.
London, Paris, Berlin, Dubai, Mumbai, Singapore, Tokyo, Beijing, Sydney, Auckland and more — covering every major business region from UTC−10 to UTC+13.
Clocks sync to your device clock and tick in real time. Seconds are identical across zones; only the hour and minute shift by each region's UTC offset.
Each clock's sky shows dawn, day, dusk, or night for that city, so you instantly know if it's a polite time to schedule a meeting or send a message.
The United States uses four main time zones across the lower 48 — Eastern, Central, Mountain, and Pacific — plus Alaska and Hawaii, for six in everyday use (and nine including territories such as Puerto Rico, Guam, and American Samoa). The table below lists every US time zone with its standard and daylight abbreviations, current UTC offset, and largest cities. Tap the US Zones filter above to watch them all tick live, or search a city such as New York, Chicago, Denver, Phoenix, Los Angeles, Anchorage, or Honolulu.
| Time Zone | Abbreviation | UTC Offset (Std / DST) | Major US Cities | DST? |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Eastern Time | ET — EST / EDT | UTC−5 / UTC−4 | New York, Washington DC, Atlanta, Miami, Boston, Philadelphia | Yes |
| Central Time | CT — CST / CDT | UTC−6 / UTC−5 | Chicago, Houston, Dallas, San Antonio, Nashville, New Orleans | Yes |
| Mountain Time | MT — MST / MDT | UTC−7 / UTC−6 | Denver, Salt Lake City, Albuquerque | Yes |
| Mountain (Arizona) | MST | UTC−7 (no DST) | Phoenix, Tucson, Mesa | No |
| Pacific Time | PT — PST / PDT | UTC−8 / UTC−7 | Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, San Diego, Las Vegas, Portland | Yes |

| Hawaii–Aleutian | HST | UTC−10 (no DST) | Honolulu, Hilo, Kailua | No |
Because Eastern and Pacific Time change for Daylight Saving Time on the same dates, the coast-to-coast difference stays a constant 3 hours all year: 9:00 AM in New York is 6:00 AM in Los Angeles. Central Time runs 1 hour behind Eastern and Mountain Time runs 2 hours behind Eastern. To turn any time in one zone into every other, use our Time Zone Converter.

One of the most-searched questions online is simply "what time is it in" a particular place. Instead of a static answer that goes stale, this page gives you a live clock the moment you type. Popular look-ups include what time is it in New York, California, Texas, Florida, Chicago, and Hawaii inside the US, and what time is it in London, India, Tokyo, Dubai, Germany, Australia, and the Philippines internationally. Type a city and you instantly see the current time, the local day and date, the UTC offset, and whether it is day or night there right now.
Time-zone abbreviations trip people up because most zones have separate names for standard and daylight time. Here are the ones you will meet most often:
| Abbreviation | Meaning | UTC Offset |
|---|---|---|
| UTC | Coordinated Universal Time — the global standard | UTC+0 |
| GMT | Greenwich Mean Time (London, winter) | UTC+0 |
| EST / EDT | Eastern Standard / Daylight Time (USA) | UTC−5 / −4 |
| CST / CDT | Central Standard / Daylight Time (USA) | UTC−6 / −5 |
| MST / MDT | Mountain Standard / Daylight Time (USA) | UTC−7 / −6 |
| PST / PDT | Pacific Standard / Daylight Time (USA) | UTC−8 / −7 |
| BST | British Summer Time (UK, summer) | UTC+1 |
| CET / CEST | Central European Time / Summer Time | UTC+1 / +2 |
| IST | India Standard Time | UTC+5:30 |
| JST | Japan Standard Time | UTC+9 |
| AEST / AEDT | Australian Eastern Standard / Daylight Time | UTC+10 / +11 |
In the United States, Daylight Saving Time in 2026 begins at 2:00 AM on Sunday, March 8, 2026, when clocks "spring forward" one hour, and ends at 2:00 AM on Sunday, November 1, 2026, when clocks "fall back" one hour. The European Union and United Kingdom switch on the last Sundays of March and October, and Southern-Hemisphere countries such as Australia and New Zealand change in the opposite seasons. You never have to track these dates here — every clock applies the correct rule automatically using the IANA time-zone database, so it stays accurate to the minute before and after each transition.
It is completely free, needs no sign-up, and shows real animated analog and digital clocks instead of a plain list of numbers. Everything runs privately in your browser — your location and searches are never stored — and the times are accurate to the second, fully DST-aware, and support half-hour and 45-minute zones like India (UTC+5:30) and Nepal (UTC+5:45). Whether you are scheduling an international call, checking on family overseas, trading global markets, or simply curious what time it is on the other side of the world, this is the fastest live world clock and time-zone tool to reach for.
