Hours until the year ends — midnight at the start of 1 January. The counter above shows the exact hours until it begins, at midnight (00:00) in your time zone.

How this is calculated

hours until the end of the year = (start of the end of the year in the chosen zone − now) ÷ 3,600 s

The countdown targets midnight (00:00) at the start of the end of the year in the selected time zone —midnight at the start of 1 January. That wall-clock time is resolved to an absolute instant, the current instant is subtracted, and the result is shown in hours. Working in absolute time means an interval that crosses a daylight saving change is an hour longer or shorter than the calendar suggests, and the number here reflects that.

The time zone is part of the link, so a countdown shared from one place shows the same hours everywhere. When the end of the year passes, the counter moves to the next one.
