America/Los_Angeles · UTC−8
PST stands for Pacific Standard Time, an offset of UTC−8, used across the US West Coast and British Columbia. But the region also shifts for summer: Pacific Daylight Time (PDT, UTC−7) applies from the second Sunday in March to the first Sunday in November, so a clock casually labelled “PST” in July is really showing PDT. The live clock above follows the America/Los_Angeles zone and shows whichever offset is in force. Pacific Time covers California, Washington and most of Nevada, and is the zone most US software release schedules are quoted in.

Common questions
- What time is it in PST right now?
- The clock at the top of this page shows the current time in PST, updated every second, with today's date and the day of the week beneath it. It reads your device's clock and converts it using the America/Los_Angeles rules, so it stays correct across daylight-saving changes.
- What UTC offset is PST?
- PST is UTC−8; its summer counterpart PDT is UTC−7, in force from the second Sunday in March to the first Sunday in November. Outside that window the offset is UTC−8.
- Does PST observe daylight saving time?
- PST is the winter half of the arrangement, but the region it refers to does change its clocks. They go forward an hour for Pacific Daylight Time, which runs from the second Sunday in March to the first Sunday in November, and back again at the end of it.
- What does PST stand for?
- Pacific Standard Time. In everyday use people write “PST” to mean the local time of the US West Coast and British Columbia, which is actually PDT for a good part of the year. The clock above resolves that for you.
