What GMT and MT Actually Are
GMT — Greenwich Mean Time
The UK and Ireland in winter, plus Iceland, Portugal and much of West Africa. Standing at UTC as written, and the region does change its clocks, so its live offset moves by an hour twice a year. The next change is on Sunday, October 25, 2026, to GMT. Often used loosely as a synonym for UTC. They differ by less than a second, so for scheduling they are interchangeable.
Britain ran an experiment from 1968 to 1971 on permanent UTC+1, abandoning GMT entirely. It was scrapped after complaints about dark winter mornings in Scotland.
MT — Mountain Time
Denver, Salt Lake City, Calgary, Edmonton — and Phoenix, which does not change its clocks. Standing at UTC-7:00 as written, and the region does change its clocks, so its live offset moves by an hour twice a year. The next change is on Sunday, November 1, 2026, to MST.
Mountain Time contains the most conspicuous daylight saving exception in North America: Arizona, which has opted out since 1968.
What This Means in Practice
Both sides change clocks, on different dates
Both regions observe daylight saving but do not switch on the same day, so for a week or two each spring and fall the gap between them is an hour different from the rest of the year. Those short windows are where recurring invitations quietly break.
