Does the answer change during the year?

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

  • November 8 to March 13: 12 AM PST = 8 AM UTC
  • March 14 to November 6: 12 AM PST = 7 AM UTC
  • November 7 to November 7: 12 AM PST = 8 AM UTC

Pacific Time switches between PST and PDT for daylight saving time; people often say PST all year.
