"I think so. It kind of depends whether New Zealand has daylight savings time.
According to my calculations, Wellington is 20 hours ahead, which puts the drop start time at 2am on Nov 9th Wellington time. However, US is moving clocks behind so the time difference will be 21 hours provided that New Zealand does not change their clocks, which would put us at 3am on Nov 9th."
