When the difference changes
Spain and the USA change their clocks on different dates, so for a few weeks each year the difference is an hour smaller than usual. The next changes:
| Date | Who changes clocks | Difference from New York |
|---|---|---|
| 10/25/2026 | Spain | 5 h |
| 11/01/2026 | USA | 6 h |
| 03/14/2027 | USA | 5 h |
| 03/28/2027 | Spain | 6 h |
Arizona and Hawaii never change their clocks, so the difference with them moves only when Spain changes its own — 10/25/2026, 03/28/2027.
