In countries near the poles such as Norway, Sweden, Finland, Iceland, and parts of Canada and Russia, there are times of the year when the sun does not set, resulting in constant daylight for several weeks during the summer months.

Saskatchewan does not observe daylight saving time to maintain consistency with its agricultural practices and to minimize disruption to daily routines. The province's location and daylight patterns mean that the benefits of changing the clocks are minimal.

Daylight Savings time starts on 26 Oct in 2008.

Yes, Illinois observes daylight saving time. Clocks are set forward one hour on the second Sunday in March and are set back one hour on the first Sunday in November.

Flying during daylight hours provides better visibility for pilots, making it easier to navigate and avoid potential obstacles. Additionally, daytime flights are generally more efficient in terms of fuel consumption and are considered safer than night flights.

November 24, 1965 was a Wednesday.

New Zealand observes daylight saving time from the last Sunday of September through the first Sunday of April.

The International Date Line affects travelers by causing them to jump forward or backward by a day when crossing it. This can lead to confusion with flight schedules, hotel bookings, and adjusting to local time. Additionally, it can impact work deadlines and communication with others in different time zones.

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.

Daylight Saving Time (United States) begins Sunday, March 11, 2012, 2:00am, and ends Sunday, November 4, 2012, 2:00am.Except Arizona and Hawaii. Move your clocks ahead 1 hour in spring and back 1 hour in fall ("Spring forward, fall back") .

Nebraska has observed daylight saving time every year since 1918.

Seattle follows daylight saving time, which begins on the second Sunday in March and ends on the first Sunday in November. During this period, clocks are moved forward by one hour to make better use of daylight.

Daylight saving time was first used during World War I in several countries, including Germany and the United States, to conserve energy. However, the modern concept of daylight saving time as we know it today was first implemented during World War II and has since been adopted by many countries around the world for various reasons.

Abolishing daylight saving time in Saskatchewan could lead to consistency and stability in terms of timekeeping year-round, reducing the disruption caused by changing the clocks twice a year. Additionally, Saskatchewan already does not observe daylight saving time, so maintaining this practice would avoid potential confusion and inconvenience for residents.

In Norway on December 25th, there are only a few hours of daylight. In locations like Oslo, there may be around 5-6 hours of daylight depending on the specific location. The further north you go in Norway, the less daylight hours you can expect.

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.

The number of daylight hours in Gaithersburg, MD varies depending on the time of year. In the winter months, it can have around 9-10 hours of daylight, while in the summer months it can have around 14-15 hours of daylight.

Dairy Farmers need to milk the herd every 12 hours. Cows can't tell time, but the manufacturing plant can. When the clocks are changed the raw milk arrives late, because they aren't done, or on the other end the tanks are over filled and waiting an extra amount of time before the trucks come and pick it up. Not a big deal, but an inconvenience. Would be eaiser just to stay on Daylight Savings, I suppose.

It's hard to say because before the signing of the Uniform Time Act of 1966, daylight saving time in the U.S. was a local issue, resulting in quite a cluster- :) , especially for travelers. However, right across the Hudson in New York City, 1954 was the last year that they ended daylight saving time on the last Sunday of September, before switching the following year to the last Sunday of October.

No, New York State did not observe Daylight Savings Time in 1947. Daylight Saving Time was widely implemented in the United States during World War I and II but was not consistently observed until the Uniform Time Act of 1966.
