Keeping track of time around the world is a TALL order. We try our best to list various times for chats, virtual meetings, etc., but world time is quite a challenge. So, here is some information to help you take charge. Learn how the time in your neck of the woods relates to IFQ members around the world!
We use a terrific site that converts times automatically. You can convert the current time right at this moment, or you can find out what time it will be anywhere in the world as compared to a future time in your location. Go to the Time Zone Converter and follow the simple directions to get your answer. Just close the Time Zone Converter window when finished.
IFQ headquarters are in California, USA which is in the Pacific Time Zone. Any times posted on this site are computed from Pacific Time. While we try very hard to post accurate times for other areas of the world, it is always best to confirm them for yourself. If you compare your local time with the US/Pacific choice in the Time Zone Converter you will get an accurate conversion. Any Daylight Saving Time (Summer Time) variations will be accounted for with this system.
To further complicate things, some of the world use a 12-hour clock, and some use a 24-hour clock! Here is a chart to help:
