Time Zones and Weather in the USA 

Envision the Earth as one giant orange. Its time zone would seem to be a wedge of that orange, moving straight from the North Pole to the South Pole. There are 24 such wedges-one for each hour in a day.

It can be said that these people agree that the time is the same, so they will be able to say "It's day here" or "It's night here" and they can use that when they are setting something or synchronizing with each other in the same area.

Coordinated Universal Time, or "UTC," is what all these zones are based on. Each time zone has its number of hours earlier or later than UTC based on where it exists as one moves on the Earth.

Exceptionally, well written in a language that even the 15-year-old son would understand without translating and deconstructing the larger terms such as spherical lunes; by simple analogy, he has made the whole piece more understandable.
