In 2012, the U.S. switched to Daylight Saving Time on March 11.
Although the US has observed Daylight Saving Time off and on since 1918, most states (Georgia included) have been observing the current form of Daylight Saving Time since the passage of the Uniform Time Act of 1966.
Daylight saving time was in use in 1963, but in the United States the beginning and end of daylight saving time wasn't standardized (with states having the right to opt out of DST observance) until the passage of the Uniform Time Act of 1966.
When Daylight Saving Time is in effect (currently March to October in the US), the standard time is advanced by 1 hour (i.e. 1 hour later), which places local noon at 1 PM Daylight Time. This has the effect of making both dawn and sunset later, moving a morning hour of daylight into the evening. Workers beginning at the same clock time as in Standard Time will have an extra hour of daylight (working time or leisure time) at the end of the day.

Indiana resumed annual Daylight Saving Time in April 2006, leaving only Hawaii and most of Arizona without it. Also, none of the unincorporated U.S. territories does Daylight Saving Time.
The states that do not observe Daylight Saving Time are Arizona (with the exception of the Navajo Nation) and Hawaii. Additionally, the territories of Guam, Puerto Rico, the US Virgin Islands, and American Samoa also do not participate in Daylight Saving Time.
