  • Answer:

    The world is broken in to time zones, UTC is what used to be known as GMT. It's the time in Greenwich, London, England. From the US East coast, depending on if you are in Daylight Savings, you are either 5 or 6 hours behind. ie. When you wake up in the morning, London is already eating lunch. Timeanddate.com has a great page that tells you your current time AND the current UTC time. Right now, you are 5 hours behind (-5 hours). This year, the USA will observe Daylight Saving Time (DST) between Sunday, March 8th and Sunday, November 1st. The UK will observe DST between Sunday, March 29th and Sunday, October 25th. The three links below show you: - Pennsylvania time and UTC time concurrently - What DST is all about - Who does DST and when

PENNSYLVANIA IS -5 HOURS AWAY FROM UTC!!!! SO, IF IT IS 3:45 PM, or 1545, THEN IT IS 8:45PM, or 20:45 in England. It's a 5 hour difference!!!!!!!! Go EAST add HOURS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You are in the Eastern Time Zone of the U.S. which is five hours behind UTC. As I write this, it is 3:32 P.M. at your location. UTC, therefore, is 8:32 P.M. UTC is usually expressed in the 24 hour format which makes your local time 1532 hours and UTC is 2032 hours. If you have a radio with shortwave bands, you can hear a continuous time signal in UTC from the US Bureau of Standards at 2.5 megahertz, 5.0 megahertz, 10.0 megahertz, 15.0 megahertz and 20.0 megahertz. You can also dial the facility in Boulder, CO at 303-499-7111 to hear the same signal and time marks. On the web, look at: http//nist.time.gov

UTC is also called GMT (Greenwich Mean Time) because it is a local time zone in England. Check out the site below that converts time zones.
