Currently Washington follows daylight saving time so we'll be using PST on new years eve.
Washington lawmakers are considering a bill to end daylight saving time. If it passes then new years eve 2020 will be PDT, not PST
2021-01-01T07:59+00:00 is midnight PST but it is 1:00 AM PDT and my alarm will be off by an hour.
