Zulu is GMT, and is not impacted by Daylight Savings Time. Barcelona, Central European Time, would observe DST right now, and is currently GMT+2.

Mostly small islands (Chatham Islands) or small countries (Nepal), or small somewhat isolated areas of bigger countries (Eucla in Australia). And of course every Canadian is aware of Newfoundland time (an extra 30 min ahead of Atlantic Time). https://www.worldtimeserver.com/learn/unusual-time-zones/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
