What is WET in HST?
Hawaii Standard Time is 11 hours behind
Western European Time is on UTC+1:00 and Hawaii Standard Time is on UTC−10:00 right now. Western European Time is on daylight saving, so its clocks read WEST. The gap changes during the year — see below.

When the difference changes
Western European Time and Hawaii Standard Time do not change their clocks on the same dates, so the gap between them is not the same all year. Most converters show only today’s figure. These are the periods ahead:
- Now – October 25, 2026Hawaii Standard Time is 11 hours behind
- October 25, 2026 – March 28, 2027Hawaii Standard Time is 10 hours behind
- March 28, 2027 – onwardsHawaii Standard Time is 11 hours behind
Periods shorter than a day are not listed: both zones change at 2am in their own local time, so there are a few hours on each transition date when the gap is briefly something else.
Daylight saving
Western European Time
Clocks go back one hour at 2am local time, becoming WET.
Hawaii Standard Time
Hawaii Standard Time stays on HST all year, so its offset from UTC never moves.

Scheduling between the two
There is no overlap between a nine-to-six working day in Lisbon and one in Honolulu — the gap is too wide. A call has to sit early or late for one side. Early morning in Lisbon is the usual compromise, since that is late afternoon or evening in Honolulu.
Western European Time (WEST) is used in Portugal, Ireland and the Canary Islands
Hawaii Standard Time (HST) is used in all of Hawaii, which does not observe daylight saving
