StyleHow it sounds
Military (spoken)“fourteen forty-five hours”
Radio, digit by digit“one four four five”
Civilian“quarter to three in the afternoon”
Written 24-hour14:45 or 1445

1445 Zulu (UTC) in US time zones

Military and aviation schedules give times in Zulu — Coordinated Universal Time — so that everyone works from one clock. When a message says 1445Z, this is the local time across the United States:

Time zoneStandard timeDaylight time
Eastern (EST / EDT)9:45 AM — R10:45 AM — Q
Central (CST / CDT)8:45 AM — S9:45 AM — R
Mountain (MST / MDT)7:45 AM — T8:45 AM — S
Pacific (PST / PDT)6:45 AM — U7:45 AM — T
Alaska (AKST / AKDT)5:45 AM — V6:45 AM — U
Hawaii (HST)4:45 AM — WNo daylight time

The letter after each time is that zone’s military time-zone letter: Eastern standard time is R (Romeo, UTC−5), so 1445Z is 0945R. Daylight time runs from the second Sunday in March to the first Sunday in November; Hawaii and most of Arizona stay on standard time all year.

1445 in everyday use

  • From 1300 on, the hour digits run past 12. A quick trick for 1300 to 1959 is to take 2 away from the second digit: 14 → 2, so 1445 is 2:45 PM.
  • The classic misreading is to drop the leading 1 and read 1445 as 4:45 — that would put the time two hours late.
