Quick answers
Why does UTC conversion sometimes change the date?
UTC is a single global time reference. When you convert it to a local timezone, the local date can become yesterday or tomorrow.
How many hours is UTC ahead of Eastern Time?
Four hours while New York is on EDT and five hours while it is on EST. Pick New York above and the converter uses the offset for the date you entered.
Should I use UTC for public event times?
UTC is useful for technical audiences, but a local-time link or converted examples reduce mistakes for everyone else.
