As of this weekend, Belize is 1 hour behind Central Time and 2 hours behind Eastern Time. That would mean we are currently the same as Mountain Time, no?

This reminds me of an old Chicago tune....does anybody really know what time it is....

"Standard" time does not change. That's the reason for the name "standard".

There is Standard Time and Daylight Saving Time.
They are not the same.

Right now its lunch time!

Belize is on Central STANDARD Time.

Some of the regions of Canada and the USA that were on CST are now on Central DAYLIGHT Time.
CDT = CST + 1h

Similarly, some of the regions that were on Eastern STANDARD Time are now on Eastern DAYLIGHT Time, and some of the regions that were on Mountain STANDARD Time are now on Mountain DAYLIGHT Time.

Belize doesn't utilize daylight saving time, so we didn't change our clocks, therefore we're still on CST.

On 27 March, Britain will begin daylight saving time and will be known as British Summer Time (BST). GMT does not change, so Britain will be GMT+1h or UTC+1h.

Well then, there we have it. Thanks MisterB

Relaxed, hope this is clear.

Ernie B - how's the golfing today?

What to have?? Rice and beans....
