| UTC Offset: UTC -1 |
November Time Zone (N) corresponds to UTC−1, placing it one hour behind Coordinated Universal Time. It is designated by the letter "N" in military, aviation, and maritime operations to ensure standardized and unambiguous time coordination. In civilian use, UTC−1 is followed in Cape Verde (CVT) year-round, used as summer time in parts of Greenland, and as winter time in the Azores.
Importance and Global Use of November Time Zone
November Time is primarily used in military and navigational contexts, especially for operations conducted in the North Atlantic region. The "N" designation eliminates confusion when coordinating across multiple time zones, particularly in transatlantic flights, naval movements, and joint military exercises.
In the civilian domain, UTC−1 supports government operations, transport, and broadcasting in isolated Atlantic territories. While not widely used globally, this time zone ensures consistent local timekeeping without daylight saving adjustments, making it suitable for stable year-round schedules in small island nations.
Where and When November time is used worldwide
November Time is used globally as a standardized reference in military and technical operations, and locally in parts of the North Atlantic. It aligns with UTC−1 and is geographically relevant between approximately 7.5° West and 22.5° West longitude.
Time entries often include the suffix "N", such as 08:00N or 0800N, pronounced "zero eight hundred November", ensuring clarity and consistency across international and defense-related communication.
