Sure? On Saturday 26 Edinburgh time will still be BST (British Summer 
Time), which is UTC+1, not UTC. That's for DST (daylight saving time) 
which ends one day later, on Sunday 27.

So I guess you really meant:

Edinburgh (BST = UTC+1):   3:00 PM
Rome/Paris (CEST = UTC+2): 4:00 PM (me)
Chicago (CDT = UTC-5):     9:00 AM (Ryan timezone, correct?)

Am I correct?

Oh, look here, that should explain much better:

Under the above asumptions, it will.

I'll be available between 3:00 PM and 5:00 PM CEST (Italy/France), 
meaning 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM BST (Edinburgh).

Under the above assumptions, that means I'll have a 1 hour time window 
since the starting time, and leave you at 4:00 PM Edinburgh Time (5:00 
PM Italian time).
