When the clocks change
The gap moves when either city changes its clocks. The next twelve months:
| Dates | Doha is | Both at work (Doha time) | Easiest (Doha / San Diego) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Now to March 14, 2027 | 11 hours ahead | None | 6 PM / 7 AM |
| March 14, 2027 to November 7, 2027 clocks in San Diego go forward | 10 hours ahead | None | 5:30 PM / 7:30 AM |
| November 7, 2027 onward clocks in San Diego go back | 11 hours ahead | None | 6 PM / 7 AM |
Doha keeps the same clock as Istanbul; San Diego keeps the same clock as San Francisco.
Which days work
Doha works Sunday to Thursday and San Diego works Monday to Friday, so the days both are at work are Monday to Thursday. A Friday call lands on Doha's weekend, and a Sunday one on San Diego's.
