So I asked Microsoft Copilot: December 11th @ 12:00 PM Pacific US in NZ time?
Sure thing! 12:00 PM on December 11th in Pacific Time (PT) converts to 9:00 AM on December 12th in New Zealand Standard Time (NZST).
If you need any more conversions or have other questions, just let me know!
But December is not Standard Time so I asked: What about daylight saving?
Great question! Daylight Saving Time (DST) in New Zealand means that the clocks are adjusted twice a year:
○ Spring Forward: On the last Sunday in September, clocks are moved forward by 1 hour to New Zealand Daylight Time (NZDT), which is GMT+13.
○ Fall Back: On the first Sunday in April, clocks are moved back by 1 hour to New Zealand Standard Time (NZST), which is GMT+12.
For example, in 2024, DST starts on September 29th and ends on April 7th.
So, if you're converting times around these dates, keep in mind the 1-hour shift. Does that help clarify things?
So I asked again: 12:00 PM on December 11th in Pacific Time (PT) to NZDT?
Got it! During December, Pacific Time (PT) is in Standard Time, which is UTC-8. New Zealand Daylight Time (NZDT) is UTC+13.
So, 12:00 PM (noon) on December 11th in Pacific Time (PT) converts to:
9:00 AM on December 12th in New Zealand Daylight Time (NZDT).
If you have any more conversions or other questions, feel free to ask!
So I asked: You just said it was 9am Dec 12 NZST and NZDT?
I see where the confusion might have come from. Let's clarify this with the correct details.
New Zealand Standard Time (NZST) is UTC+12, and New Zealand Daylight Time (NZDT) is UTC+13.
○ 12:00 PM on December 11th in Pacific Time (PT) (which is UTC-8 during Standard Time) converts to 9:00 AM on December 12th in NZDT (UTC+13).
So, the correct time in New Zealand Daylight Time (NZDT) is 9:00 AM on December 12th.
Thank you for pointing that out! If there's anything else you need help with, feel free to let me know.
