time difference
Zones apart measurement
Time difference is the gap in clock time between two places, typically due to different time zones.
When it's noon in New York, it's 5 PM in London—a five-hour time difference.
The phrase often comes up in coordinating across distances: The time difference makes scheduling calls difficult.
It can also refer to elapsed time between events: The time difference between the two finishes was less than a second.
