Convert new york time to lagos nigeria
New York is in the Eastern Standard Time (EST) zone, which is UTC-5 hours during standard time and UTC-4 hours during daylight saving time.
Lagos, Nigeria is in the West Africa Time (WAT) zone, which is UTC+1 hour.
To convert New York time to Lagos time, you would add 6 hours during standard time and 5 hours during daylight saving time.
Here's a breakdown:
- New York (EST) = UTC-5 hours
- Lagos (WAT) = UTC+1 hour
- Difference = 6 hours (during standard time)
- New York (EST) = UTC-4 hours (during daylight saving time)
- Lagos (WAT) = UTC+1 hour
- Difference = 5 hours (during daylight saving time)
So, if it's 12:00 PM (noon) in New York during standard time, it would be 6:00 PM in Lagos. During daylight saving time, it would be 5:00 PM in Lagos.
Keep in mind that Nigeria does not observe daylight saving time, so the difference remains 6 hours throughout the year.
