These were hard to calculate, as different places in the same time zone do or do not have daylight saving times. So if you happen to spot any mistakes, please let us know!
ETA: To avoid confusion, I removed the “GMT”s. Due to daylight saving times, they can lead to misunderstandings. Hopefully the numbers and the locations used as examples will allow everyone to figure out what their starting time is, but if in doubt, don’t hesitate to let us know.
Also ETA: You can download this spreadsheet that has the start times and the corresponding hours.
