Technically, counting forward from the international meridian in Greenwich, every 15 degrees of longitude should equate to a one-hour time change.

(north of 62 degrees each major block represents 8 degrees of longitude)

Because of the persistent influence of the mountains, sometimes a ridge in the flow pattern develops at about 15 degrees of longitude upstream.
