You could get some more efficiency by not calling the date external on each input line and using bash to convert the date time to an mmddHHMMSS number for direct comparison like this:
If file is sorted you can save processing additional lines by using break instead of continue once you are past the target datetime.
Edit: This will have issues around end of calendar year where Dec 31 will appear to be greater than Jan 1
