When is it Daylight Saving Time and when is it not?

Question

Wiki User · Answer

There isn't an exact time for daylight savings to ensue itself, but a way I know to remember this question is of an old fashion quote, "spring forward, fall back.' This simply means in the spring the time goes upward and fall the opposite.

Standard time. Daylight saving time is an artificial way of changing the time to match the hours of daylight more closely with people's preferred schedules, such as having daylight in the evening. In the United States, standard time runs from the first Sunday in November till the second Sunday in March. In the UK and much of Europe , however, standard time starts at the last Sunday in October and runs through the last Sunday of March or for about four more weeks.

The idea of changing times and adjusting schedules doesn't agree with everyone. Some people complain about losing sleep. There are even some religions that are against it. Many believe that man adjusted and survived for years the way it use to be. ___________________________________________________________ Most countries in the tropics do not observe Daylight Saving Time because at or near the equator the time of sunrise does not vary enough through the year to take advantage of the time shift. Also, except for the Middle East, most Asian countries do not observe Daylight Saving Time. Some countries, like Russia for example, do not change their clocks every year but keep their clocks at least an hour ahead of local mean time always. The time is the same year-'round in the following places: Pacific Ocean: American Samoa Cook Islands French Polynesia Galapagos Islands Guam Hawaii Kiribati Marshall Islands Micronesia Midway Nauru New Caledonia Niue Northern Mariana Islands Palau Pitcairn Islands Solomon Islands Tokelau Tonga Tuvalu Vanuatu Wallis & Futuna  Australia Northern Territory Queensland Western Australia  Asia Afghanistan Armenia Bahrain Bangladesh Bhutan Brunei Cambodia China Georgia India Indonesia Iraq Japan Kazakhstan Kuwait Kyrgyzstan Laos Malaysia Mongolia Myanmar Nepal North Korea Oman Pakistan Philippines Qatar Russia Saudi Arabia Singapore South Korea Taiwan Tajikistan Thailand Timor-Leste Turkmenistan United Arab Emirates  Uzbekistan Vietnam Yemen  Indian Ocean British Indian Ocean Territory Christmas Island Cocos (Keeling) Islands Comoros Madagascar Maldives Mauritius Mayotte R&#233;union Seychelles Sri Lanka  Africa Algeria Angola Benin Botswana Burkina Faso Burundi Cameroon Central African Republic  Chad Congo C&#244;te d'Ivoire D.
