The United States uses UTC-5 a UTC-10 as its standard time across 29 IANA zones. Clocks move forward in summer for daylight saving time, so the local offset alternates seasonally around the UTC−5 standard. Times on this page are computed in your browser from the IANA time zone database, so they always match the real current time in the United States.
