Time shifts set local mean time from standard time
Time changes by one minute per TM% degree of longitude. Four minutes per degree east or west of the standard meridian are added or subtracted to obtain local mean time. For Eastern Standard Time the central meridian is 75 degrees west. High Point sits near 80 degrees west, so minus 20 minutes yields local mean time. Use state road maps showing longitude lines to pinpoint exact longitudes for smaller places.
