Daylight Savings Time Begins Sunday Morning

The time of day will go up one hour on Sunday. Arizonan is one State that does not change Times. California voted in a past election, to join Arizona in not changing time. But, it has to be approved by the federal government, before it is implemented. Only 4 months of the year are Standard Time. From early November to early March. Why just 4 months? I'm wishing for federal approval, so California joins Arizona, in not changing time twice a year. Don't forget to change your clocks and watches, etc. I prefer daylight savings time. Yearlong.

Yep, full time DST!
No, Arizona is NOT on DST, nor is Hawaii, nor should any of the country be. There is no logical explanation for DST.

I retired to the Dominican Republic a couple of years ago. One of the many perks is AST year round. One less thing to worry about. (AST = Atlantic Standard Time)

And it gets lighter later. Cut the end off a blanket and sew it onto the other end = same length blanket.

Yeah people use that anology all the time and it’s bad. For me there is a big difference if it’s light in the morning, (when I’m going to work and couldn’t care less), and in the evening, (when I relish more light to do things after work)

Actually, it’s a perfect analogy because it shows that DST accomplishes absolutely nothing but to create conversations like this one. Down with DST!

And give us light longer in the evening.

I get that it might be too complex for you to understand.
