About the time in Palm Springs
The zone identifier America/Los_Angeles is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but America/Los_Angeles keeps pointing at Los Angeles time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
Sunrise today lands at 06:15 and sunset at 07:21 local time, giving 13h 06m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (33.80, -116.54) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Palm Springs.
Palm Springs runs on America/Los_Angeles, which puts the city UTC −7 from Coordinated Universal Time right now. The clock at the top of this page is not copied from your device: it is anchored to our reference timestamp and re-rendered every second against the IANA time zone database, so it stays right even when a laptop or phone has quietly drifted.
