About the time in Hants
The zone identifier America/Halifax is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but America/Halifax keeps pointing at Halifax time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
Sunrise today lands at 06:25 and sunset at 08:11 local time, giving 13h 46m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (45.03, -63.87) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Hants.
Hants is on daylight saving time at the moment, which is why the offset reads UTC −3 instead of its winter value. Clocks go back on 1 November 2026, and anything scheduled across that date shifts by an hour.
