The Pacific Time Zone observes standard time by subtracting eight hours from Coordinated Universal Time (UTCâ8). The standard time in this zone is based on the mean solar time of the 120th meridian west of the Greenwich Observatory.
This time zone is called Pacific Standard Time (PST) in winters, when standard time is observed, and Pacific Daylight Time (PDT) in summers, when daylight saving time is observed. The states in the US where PST is used include California, Idaho, Nevada, Oregon, and Washington.
