I fell asleep on the couch then overslept the following morning and forgot. Only when the evening TV shows came on did I realize I'd forgotten to switchover the clock.

Would daylight savings be useful to Antarctica?

Scientific stations in Antarctica usually operate on the local time for the government that they serve. There is no standard time in Antarctica. If the country headquarters is on daylight savings time, then so is the Antarctic base. However, when the sun is up 24 hours out of the day, there's not much value to the notion.

When it is one o'clock in the afternoon in the Pacific time zone, during daylight savings time, it's four o'clock in the afternoon in the Eastern time zone -- also during daylight savings time. Both time zones move between standard and daylight savings time in parallel, so it cannot be standard time in one time zone in the US and daylight savings time in another zone.

Why is daylight savings time called daylight savings time?

In "Daylight Saving Time," "Daylight Saving" is being used as an adjective - as in time that is saving daylight. "Daylight Savings" would be a noun itself, and makes little sense applied as an adjective in this context. Many people use the word savings, not knowing the correct way to say it. Edit; "Daylight Saving" time.

If it's 7 am in New Zealand what time is it in New York City?

Were it not for Daylight Savings Time, New Zealand would be 17 hours ahead of Eastern Standard Time. But since these two cities are in opposite hemispheres (New York in the Northern Hemisphere, and New Zealand in the Southern) they have opposite seasons (when it's winter in New Zealand, it's summer in New York, and vice versa).Because they have opposite seasons, New Zealand is on Daylight Savings Time when the U.S. is not, and the U.S. is on Daylight Savings Time when New Zealand is not. There are only a few weeks in a year when both are on Daylight Savings or Standard Time (as New York begins Daylight Savings a few weeks before New Zealand ends Daylight Savings, and vice versa).So, during the middle of the year (approximately March/April through September/November), New Zealand is 16 hours ahead of Eastern Daylight Time.During the rest of the year (approximately September/November to March/April) New Zealand is 18 hours ahead of Eastern Standard Time.From late September (when New Zealand begins Daylight Savings) to early November (when New York ends Daylight Savings), and from mid-March (when Daylight Savings begins in New York) to early April (when it ends in New Zealand), New Zealand is 17 hours ahead of New York.Also, the Chatham Islands are 45 minutes ahead of mainland New Zealand. So, the Chatham Islands are 16 hours and 45 minutes ahead of Eastern Daylight Time, and 18 hours and 45 minutes ahead of Eastern Standard Time.So, in December, if it's 7 AM on Tuesday in New Zealand, then it's 1 PM on Monday in New York.In July, if it's 7 AM on Tuesday in New Zealand, then it's 3 PM on Monday in New York.From late September to early November, if it's 7 AM on Tuesday in New Zealand, then it's 2 PM on Monday in New York.Also, from mid-March to early April, if it's 7 AM on Tuesday in New Zealand, it's 2 PM on Monday in New York.

Why do states such as Arizona and Hawaii choosenot to part icipate in daylight savings time?

Put simply, there's no need for it in Hawaii. The idea behind Daylight Saving Time is that it adjusts the clock to take more advantage of the increased natural light. Because Hawaii is so close to the equator, the sun rises and sets at relatively the same time throughout the year. Due to this fact, there is no need to adjust clocks to take more advantage of the sun.
