About these two clocks
PST — Pacific Time. Used in Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, Vancouver. PST is the winter name; from March to November the same clocks show PDT (UTC−7).
GMT — Greenwich Mean Time. Used in UTC+0; the UK uses it in winter only. GMT itself never shifts. The UK leaves GMT for BST (UTC+1) from late March to late October, so “London time” and GMT differ in summer.
All figures on this page come from the IANA time zone database (the same data your phone and laptop use), evaluated for the date in question. Abbreviations are ambiguous — “IST” also means Irish or Israel Standard Time, and “CST” is China Standard Time in Asia — so this page uses America/Los_Angeles and Etc/GMT explicitly.
