Clock rules in Miami

Miami keeps EST (UTC−5) in winter and EDT (UTC−4) in summer, the clock of most of Florida. Not all of Florida is on it: CST (UTC−6) / CDT (UTC−5) in East Pensacola Heights and Pensacola. tzdata describes Miami’s zone, America/New_York, as “Eastern (most areas)”.

Local mean solar time at 80.19° W is UTC−5:21, so standard time runs 21 min ahead of the sun: it is highest at about 12:21 PM (an hour later in summer). That is 13 min later than in Washington, on the same clock.

Miami has kept the same clocks as New York City since at least 1970; the zone’s rules, coming changes and history are on the America/New_York page.
