Computed on a date when EDT is genuinely in force — using today would be wrong for half the year, because a standard-time abbreviation does not exist in summer.

Common questions

What is the difference between EDT and UTC?
UTC is 4 hours ahead of EDT. EDT means Eastern Daylight Time at UTC-4, and UTC means Coordinated Universal Time at UTC+0.
Which time zone does this page use for EDT?
America/New_York. An abbreviation is not a time zone — it is a label a zone wears for part of the year — so every calculation here uses a named IANA zone and says which one. If you are writing code, use America/New_York rather than the string "EDT".
Is EDT a daylight saving abbreviation?
Yes. EDT only exists during the daylight saving part of the year; outside it, the same zone is on a different abbreviation and a different offset.
