What PST and UTC mean here
PST means US Pacific Time: Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, Las Vegas and Vancouver. That's PST (UTC−8) in winter and PDT (UTC−7) from March 8 to November 1, 2026. The Philippines also uses "PST" for Philippine Standard Time (UTC+8); for that, search for Manila.
UTC (Coordinated Universal Time) is the world's reference clock. It never changes for daylight saving time, so any change in the gap comes from the other zone moving its clocks. UTC is also written as "Z" or "Zulu" in aviation and military use, and for everyday purposes it is the same as GMT.
