Daylight Savings Time Change Nov 7: Time Change Fall 2010

Last week Europe was the focus of Time Change Fall 2010 and Daylight Savings Time. Now, this weekend, Sunday, is November 7th, the day of setting our clock's back one hour in the Americas.

The change will add one hour of sunlight starting Sunday morning November 7th.

NIST Website Has The Info

The best place for exact information on the Daylight Savings Time Change is the website of the National Institute of Technology and Standards. It reads:



Daylight Saving Time begins each year at 2 a.m. on the second Sunday of March. Move clocks ahead one hour at the start of Daylight Saving Time.
Standard Time begins each year at 2 a.m. on the first Sunday of November. Move your clocks back one hour at the resumption of Standard Time. Daylight Saving Time and time zones are regulated by the U.S. Department of Transportation, not by NIST.
In 2010, Daylight Savings Time is from 2:00 a.m. (local time) on March 14 until 2:00 a.m. (local time) on November 7.
In 2011, Daylight Savings Time is from 2:00 a.m. (local time) on March 13 until 2:00 a.m. (local time) on November 6.


You can also get accurate U.S. time for your time zone at www.nist.gov.
