Morphology

LST = L + S + T

This is an initialism (acronym) formed from initials; the letters are not English morphemes and the meaning cannot be derived from them.

Etymology

LST stands for Local Standard Time, where 'standard' means 'official' for a region and is not changed for daylight saving. So LST is the normal clock time used in a place for schedules and official documents.
