Coordinated Universal Time is the reference every time zone is measured from. It never changes for daylight saving time. Servers, aviation, logs and APIs use it because it is unambiguous.
Pacific Time follows the clock in Los Angeles: Pacific Standard Time (PST, UTC−8) in winter and Pacific Daylight Time (PDT, UTC−7) during US daylight saving time.
PST is often used loosely for Pacific Time all year. In summer the correct abbreviation is PDT; the converter uses whichever applies on your date.
PDT is 7 hours behind UTC for most of the year (238 days in 2026). The gap is 8 hours for about 18 weeks in 2026.
California uses Pacific Time. PDT is 7 hours behind UTC for most of the year (238 days in 2026). The gap is 8 hours for about 18 weeks in 2026. Type any UTC time into the UTC to PST converter to see the California time for any date.
