BST to EDT Time Converter
About this conversion
BST is UTC+1 and EDT is UTC-4, so the gap is five hours. This is the combination that applies for most of the summer, from the US start of daylight saving to the end of British Summer Time, except for the weeks when the changes do not overlap.
When the time difference changes
Both sides keep a fixed offset, so the gap does not change in the next two years.
