My In-Laws are in vacation in Cairns. They want to e-mail me. I'm on MT in AZ?

Question

What is our time difference? IT is 5.35pm. here now

Answer 1

One hour ago it was 11.05am Tuesday.

As the above said the eastern coast of Australia is GMT +10.

But if you're emailing, what does the time matter?

Answer 2

MT is GMT  -7 hours (then adjust for daylight saving)

Cairns is GMT +10 hours (no adjustment needed)

At 5.35pm MT, it is 12.35pm  the next day, or 11.35am if you have daylight saving

At the moment, it is 12.01pm on Tuesday 15th April here in Brisbane (same time zone as Cairns)
