    Time difference with major cities

    When it is 12:00 PM (noon) in Tel Aviv, it is:

    CityJanuaryJuly
    New York5:00 AM5:00 AM
    Los Angeles2:00 AM2:00 AM
    London10:00 AM10:00 AM
    Paris11:00 AM11:00 AM
    Tokyo7:00 PM6:00 PM
    Sydney9:00 PM7:00 PM

    The gap with Tokyo changes by one hour during the year, because Tel Aviv changes its clocks and this city does not. With Sydney, the gap is not the same in January and July: the clocks change at other times of the year there. With New York, Los Angeles, London and Paris, the gap is the same in January and July but one hour different for a few weeks a year, because the clocks do not change on the same dates.
