What is 6 PM EST in HST?

Does the answer change during the year?

Yes. Eastern Time and Hawaii Time don't change their clocks on the same dates, so over the next 12 months:

• October 14 to October 31: 6 PM EST = 12 PM HST
• November 1 to March 13: 6 PM EST = 1 PM HST
• March 14 to October 13: 6 PM EST = 12 PM HST

Eastern Time switches between EST and EDT for daylight saving time; people often say EST all year.
