The sun is at each one at different times.
A:The east coast borders the Atlantic Ocean, and is thus subject to Atlantic hurricanes. Weather systems moving from west to east over the colder land mass of North America often bring strong storms (and in the winter, snow). Coastal watchers can enjoy the sun rising over the sea. It is also much closer to Europe.
The west coast borders the Pacific Ocean, and thereby enjoys a climate that is both milder and wetter; it sees far more rain, but much less snow. Tides are generally higher, favoring activities such as surfing. Locals can enjoy (and many Hollywood movies show) the sun setting over the sea.
The east coast of the U.S. is three hours ahead of the west coast of the U.S.
Two opposite-coast states that are one hour apart are Veracruz and Baja California Sur in Mexico.
2pm on the West Coast is 5pm on the East Coast.
The time difference between the east coast and the west coast of the United States is due to their respective positions within different time zones. The Earth is divided into 24 time zones, each roughly 15 degrees of longitude wide. When it is noon on the east coast, it is 9 am on the west coast due to the Earth's rotation.
The time difference between England (GMT) and America can vary depending on the specific region in America. For example, the time difference between England and Eastern Standard Time (EST) is typically 5 hours when England is on GMT and America is on EDT. Similarly, the time difference between England and Pacific Standard Time (PST) is typically 8 hours.
If you're in an airplane, it's because of prevailing winds.

No. They are in the same time zone.
2pm on the West Coast is 5pm on the East Coast.
Because it is so big! There is 2 hours difference from Greenwich Mean Time between the east coast and the west coast. For reference, there is only 3 hours difference between the east and west coast of the USA.
In the United States, the East Coast is on Eastern Standard Time while the West Coast is on Pacific Standard Time. Between the two is Central Standard Time and Mountain Standard Time, for a total of three time zones between the East Coast and the West Coast. Therefore, the East Coast is 3 hours ahead of the West Coast - ie, 5 PM on the East Coast is 2 PM on the West Coast.
The West Coast is three hours ahead of the East Coast. So if it is 6 am in New York City, it is 3 am in Los Angeles, CA.
The moon can be seen from the east coast and the west coast at the same time but not always.
The time difference between the east coast and the west coast of the United States is due to their respective positions within different time zones. The Earth is divided into 24 time zones, each roughly 15 degrees of longitude wide. When it is noon on the east coast, it is 9 am on the west coast due to the Earth's rotation.
Florida is on the east coast.
The East coast is 4 hours ahead of Alaska.
