    It's that time of year again!!
    I didn't realize it was that close.....but it's this weekend!! (March 8th)

    Saturday night before you go to bed, set your clocks 1 hour AHEAD!

    You guys in Hawaii & Arizona, is it true you don't do this?
    How do you cope with the rest of the states being out-of-time?

    So why does Arizona not do it?

    If you travel out-of-state, I guess you just have to adjust your timing then?

    Because the rest of the world revolves around us!!!




    Not really sure why we dont do it...


    No More Sunlight in Arizona and Hawaii

    Arizona (with the exception of the Navajo Nation) and Hawaii and the territories of Puerto Rico, Virgin Islands, Guam, and American Samoa are the only places in the U.S. that do not observe DST but instead stay on "standard time" all year long. And if you've spent any time in the sweltering summer sun in those regions you can understand why residents don't need another hour of sunlight.

    That's understandable....

    I love the fact that it stays light outside till 9pm in the summer and I hate the fact that it's dark at 5pm in the winter.

    Even without the DST, it stays light here until past 8 in the summer months.....sad thing is, it also stays over 100* even after midnight. :(

    You can go to Hoover Dam which is between AZ and NV and they have a clock on each side, so you can stand in the middle and be in 2 different times :woot:.

    I think NV should follow along with AZ and stay on standard time, we have excessive heat and sunlight also! 100* nights are coming up soon :tumbleweed:.
