When the difference changes

Western European Time and Pacific 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:

  1. Now – March 14, 2027Pacific Time is 8 hours behind
  2. March 14, 2027 – March 28, 2027Pacific Time is 7 hours behind
  3. March 28, 2027 – October 31, 2027Pacific Time is 8 hours behind
  4. October 31, 2027 – November 7, 2027Pacific Time is 7 hours behind
  5. November 7, 2027 – onwardsPacific Time is 8 hours behind

Periods shorter than a day are not listed. Each zone changes at its own local time, so on a date when both move there are a few hours when the gap is briefly something else.
