Questions

What is the UTC offset of CST?

Central Time is UTC-6 / UTC-5 depending on daylight saving time. It is currently UTC-6.

How do I convert a CST cron schedule to UTC?

Shift the hour field by 6 hours. For example, 0 9 * * * in CST is 0 15 * * * in UTC right now.

Does CST observe daylight saving time?

Yes. Central Time covers the central United States and Canada. CST is UTC-6 in winter and CDT is UTC-5 during daylight saving time. Cron jobs scheduled in UTC will run one hour earlier or later in local CST time after each DST change.
