About this clock
Coeur d'Alene does not keep Idaho's usual time
Most of Idaho is on Mountain Standard Time, but Coeur d'Alene keeps Pacific Standard Time — 1 hour behind the rest of the state. This is the kind of thing that catches people out, and it is why the zone is resolved from the city’s own coordinates rather than assumed from the state.
Coeur d'Alene is currently on standard time. The next change is Sunday, March 14, 2027, when 2:00 am becomes 3:00 am local time.
Coeur d'Alene sits at 47.70°N, 116.80°W. For sunrise and sunset there — which do depend on exactly where it is, unlike the clock — see sunrise and sunset in Coeur d'Alene.
Clock time against sun time
The clock says the same thing everywhere in Pacific Standard Time, but the sun does not. Over Coeur d'Alene it is highest at 11:31 am today — 29 minutes before clock noon.
At 116.8°W, Coeur d'Alene sits 13 minutes of solar time east of Pacific Standard Time’s 120° meridian, so on standard time the sun peaks 13 minutes before noon.
