About this clock
Schererville does not keep Indiana's usual time
Most of Indiana is on Eastern Standard Time, but Schererville keeps Central 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.
Schererville is currently on standard time. The next change is Sunday, March 14, 2027, when 2:00 am becomes 3:00 am local time.
Schererville sits at 41.49°N, 87.44°W. For sunrise and sunset there — which do depend on exactly where it is, unlike the clock — see sunrise and sunset in Schererville.
Clock time against sun time
The clock says the same thing everywhere in Central Standard Time, but the sun does not. Over Schererville it is highest at 11:34 am today — 26 minutes before clock noon.
At 87.4°W, Schererville sits 10 minutes of solar time east of Central Standard Time’s 90° meridian, so on standard time the sun peaks 10 minutes before noon.
