PST vs MDT: what's the time gap?
MDT is 2 hours ahead of PST. In everyday terms, once you know the time on one side you just add 2 hours to get the other — so a call between Los Angeles and Denver is always 2 hours apart.
What's the current time in MDT?
Right now the time in Mountain Daylight Time (MDT) is Monday, June 29, 2026 · 11:53:56 AM. It ticks every second, so you’re always looking at the live MDT clock.
And what time is it in PST?
And in Pacific Standard Time (PST), it’s currently Monday, June 29, 2026 · 9:53:56 AM. Compare the two and the 2 hours gap is easy to see.
When is a good time to schedule a PST to MDT meeting?
For example, a 9:00 AM PST meeting takes place at 11:00 AM MDT. The trick is to aim for a slot that lands inside normal working hours on both sides. Once you’ve found a time, hit Share on the converter to copy a link with the time built in — easy to send to a colleague. Juggling three or more zones? The meeting planner highlights the hours that overlap for everyone.
Does daylight saving time change the PST–MDT difference?
The labels PST and MDT are fixed offsets, so the result on this page is always exact. Both regions move their clocks for daylight saving on roughly the same weekends, so the 2 hours gap usually holds steady right through the year.
How accurate is this PST to MDT conversion?
We don’t guess. PST and MDT times are worked out from the official IANA time zone database, the trusted standard that operating systems use worldwide. Because daylight-saving rules and regional offsets do change over time, we track those updates rather than relying on a fixed number — which is exactly where many converters slip up.

Why might the real-world PST–MDT difference change during the year?
