Daylight Saving Time and Arizona: What You Need to Know

0

Daylight saving time started early Sunday morning, but people in Arizona did not need to change their clocks. This is because Arizona does not follow daylight saving time. Instead, the state stays on Mountain Standard Time (MST) all year. This means Arizona does not have to move its clocks forward or backward like most other states in the U.S.

Most of the country, including some parts of Arizona that belong to the Navajo Nation, follows daylight saving time. On Sunday at 2 a.m., clocks moved forward by one hour to 3 a.m. This new time will last until November when clocks move back again.

Arizona decided not to follow daylight saving time because of its hot weather. By staying at the same time all year, people in Arizona can enjoy cooler evenings sooner than in other states. Arizona originally followed daylight saving time in 1918 but stopped in 1968.

Former President Donald Trump once suggested getting rid of daylight saving time, calling it "inconvenient" and costly. However, in a recent statement, he said that opinions on daylight saving time are divided and did not take a strong position on the matter.

The Navajo Nation, which includes parts of Arizona, Utah, and New Mexico, follows daylight saving time. This helps keep the same time for all Navajo Nation members, even though they live in different states.
