My province just did this. we have our own time now but go make it extra confusing we are called PCT instead of PST. And outlook fucked every single person’s meetings on Nov 1.
Are you from Manitoba or BC?
BC. Didnt realize Manitoba did it as well
Yeah Manitoba was the trend setter, BC and Alberta (which I forgot to mention) followed after the Manitoba NDO made the announcement
And Alberta
Not pictured is the cluster of buildings that is the Navajo Embassy to the Hopi Nation. I’ve been told that that “block” and the surrounding road observe DLS.
So if going from Phoenix to the Four Corners, there is a route where you’d theoretically need to change your clock 6 times before leaving the state.
And if your phone syncs with your car, your car’s time will flip back and forth a lot.
An extraterrestrial visiting Earth would scratch its head in wonder.
What makes you think we have heads?
Probably not because they would have seen our tilted axis on the way in.
That still doesn’t explain what’s happening in Arizona.
You have to have more darkness at some point in the day during winter, there’s no getting around it. Arizona just made a choice to have darker mornings in lieu of no clock changes.
And to be fair they are further south so the daylight isn’t quite as scarce as it is in more northern states. I think getting rid of the clock changes makes a bit more sense the further south you go.
I can see the argument for DST or no DST. I can even sort of see the argument for DST matching the economic powerhouse a few hundred miles away. But there is nothing in planetary physics to justify 3 different time zone usages in such a small area, with major cities being on a different one than all the area around them, or for one quadrant to be (mostly) different from the rest of it.
Moreover, there is only a 2 hour shift of sunrise/sunset from the peak of summer to the depths of winter. That’s barely enough to justify the hassle of DST in my opinion.
What’s the difference between pink DST and cream-colored DST?
If your DST is pink, go see a doctor.
You can get a creame for that
Time zones. Cali and Nevada are in Pacific.
Are you sure you want to know?
We don’t talk about such things in my family…
Different time zones. Pink is PST(-8), cream is mountain(-7)
