ଛାଞ୍ଚ:Current hour in time zone

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

This template gives the current hour in the given time zone in 24-hour format. If no additional parameters are set, it uses {{Daylight saving in time zone}} to automatically adjust the hour according to Daylight Saving Time (DST), if applicable. It can be used in conjunction with {{Current minute in time zone}} to get the current time in a particular time zone. See below for the currently supported time zones.

Usage

{{Current hour in time zone|time zone[|autoDST=no]}}

('[...]' means 'optional', do not include the square brackets when using this template)

where

• time zone is the desired time zone abbreviation (see below and also the list of time zone abbreviations);
  If no time zone is given or if the given time zone is not supported, then the output will default to the current hour of UTC±0 time;
  In this case, instead of giving a time zone, an offset (e.g. -3, 1, 5, etc.) can also be given to get the current hour of UTC+offset time (which will not be adjusted according to DST);
• autoDST is an optional parameter to disable automatic Daylight Saving Time adjustment by setting the value to "no";
  If a DST variant of a particular time zone exists, then the time is automatically adjusted according to DST by default.

Supported time zones

Currently the following time zones are supported:

Abbreviations	Name	Offset (summer)	Notes
PT / PST (PDT)	Pacific Standard(/Daylight) Time	UTC-08:00 (UTC-07:00)	When autoDST is not set to "no", the *T, *ST and *DT variants of a particular time zone will produce the same output and can be used interchangeably. Otherwise (when using autoDST=no), *T and *ST will produce the hour without DST adjustment, and *DT will produce the hour with DST adjustment.
MT / MST (MDT)	Mountain Standard(/Daylight) Time	UTC-07:00 (UTC-06:00)
CT / CST (CDT)	Central Standard(/Daylight) Time	UTC-06:00 (UTC-05:00)
ET / EST (EDT)	Eastern Standard(/Daylight) Time	UTC-05:00 (UTC-04:00)
WET (WEST)	Western European (Summer) Time	UTC+00:00 (UTC+01:00)	When autoDST is not set to "no", both the *ET and *EST variants of a particular time zone will produce the same output and can be used interchangeably. Otherwise (when using autoDST=no), *ET will produce the hour without DST adjustment, and *EST will produce the hour with DST adjustment.
CET (CEST)	Central European (Summer) Time	UTC+01:00 (UTC+02:00)
EET (EEST)	Eastern European (Summer) Time	UTC+02:00 (UTC+03:00)
AWT / AWST	Australian Western Standard Time	UTC+08:00	When autoDST is not set to "no", the *T, *ST and *DT variants of a particular time zone will produce the same output and can be used interchangeably. Otherwise (when using autoDST=no), *T and *ST will produce the hour without DST adjustment, and *DT will produce the hour with DST adjustment.
ACT / ACST (ACDT)	Australian Central Standard(/Daylight) Time	UTC+09:30 (UTC+10:30)
AET / AEST (AEDT)	Australian Eastern Standard(/Daylight) Time	UTC+10:00 (UTC+11:00)
