Connecticut (CT) is in the Eastern Time Zone (ET), not the Central Time Zone. It observes Eastern Standard Time (EST, UTC−05:00) during the winter and Eastern Daylight Time (EDT, UTC−04:00) during daylight saving time in the summer
. The term "CT" often refers to Central Time, which is UTC−06:00 (standard) or UTC−05:00 (daylight), but this does not apply to Connecticut. Instead, Connecticut follows Eastern Time, consistent with the rest of New England
