Los Angeles → New York

2pm PST to EST

The answer

2pm PST is 17:00 in New York, same day.

This one is stable all year: New York is 3 hours ahead of Los Angeles in every month, because both sides change their clocks together (or neither does).

Both halves of the year

Summer 14:00 17:00 same day
Winter 14:00 17:00 same day

Daylight saving state

In summer, Los Angeles is on daylight saving time and New York is on daylight saving time. Because the two sides shift together, the gap between them never changes — only the labels do.

The hours either side

Los AngelesNew York (summer)New York (winter)
12pm 15:00 15:00
1pm 16:00 16:00
2pm 17:00 17:00
3pm 18:00 18:00
4pm 19:00 19:00

Going the other way

New York runs 3 hours ahead of Los Angeles, so to go back you reverse it. If you are writing this down for someone else, name the cities rather than the abbreviations — “PST” and “EST” are only correct for part of the year, and some abbreviations mean different things in different countries. See EST vs EDT.
