What is 5 AM EST in HST?

Does the answer change during the year?

Yes. Eastern Time and Hawaii Time don't change their clocks on the same dates, so over the next 12 months:

• November 8 to March 13: 5 AM EST = 12 AM HST
• March 14 to November 6: 5 AM EST = 11 PM HST the previous day
• November 7 to November 7: 5 AM EST = 12 AM HST

Eastern Time switches between EST and EDT for daylight saving time; people often say EST all year.
