Frequently Asked Questions
What is the time difference between MDT and EDT?
During standard time, Eastern Daylight Time is 2 hours ahead of Mountain Daylight Time.
When does MDT start and end?
MDT begins on the second Sunday in March at 02:00 local MST time, when clocks spring forward one hour from MST (UTC-7) to MDT (UTC-6). It ends on the first Sunday in November at 02:00 local MDT time, when clocks fall back to MST. In 2026, MDT runs from March 8 through November 1, covering the majority of the calendar year.
Is Arizona on MDT?
Most of Arizona — including Phoenix and Tucson — does not observe Daylight Saving Time and remains on MST (UTC-7) year-round under a state law in effect since 1968, meaning Arizona does not advance to MDT each March. The significant exception is the Navajo Nation, a sovereign territory spanning parts of northeastern Arizona, southeastern Utah, and northwestern New Mexico, which does observe DST and shifts to MDT on the standard federal schedule.
When does EDT start and end?
EDT begins on the second Sunday in March at 02:00 local time, when clocks spring forward one hour from EST (UTC-5) to EDT (UTC-4). It ends on the first Sunday in November at 02:00 local time, when clocks fall back to EST. In 2026, EDT runs from March 8 through November 1.
Is EDT the same as EST?
EDT and EST are two phases of the same Eastern Time zone, not two separate zones. EST (Eastern Standard Time) is the winter offset at UTC-5, observed from early November through mid-March. EDT (Eastern Daylight Time) is the summer offset at UTC-4, active during Daylight Saving Time — meaning New York and Toronto run one hour ahead of their winter clock for roughly eight months of every year.
