What time was it 24 hours ago in Eastern or Pacific time?
The time zone table above shows the moment in New York (Eastern), Chicago (Central), Denver (Mountain) and Los Angeles (Pacific). Pacific time runs 3 hours behind Eastern. So 5:00 p.m. in New York is 2:00 p.m. in Los Angeles.
Is 24 hours the same as 1 day?
Yes, one full day. If it is 3:15 p.m. on a Friday now, 24 hours ago was 3:15 p.m. on a Thursday. The one catch is the night the clocks change for daylight saving time, when a day has 23 or 25 hours.
