DST Change Date Worldwide 2016 | To 2015 |
Daylight Saving Time (DST) is widely used, especially in Europe and America. It usually starts
at spring and ends at fall. People sets the clock forward 1 hour when it begins, and set the clock backward 1 hour when it ends.
For Example, at 1:00 AM of March 27, 2016 in Europe, set the clock to 2:00 AM to start the DST. The dates for DST change are different from different countries and regions. One factor is the geographic location, for example, north hemisphere's summer is south hemisphere's winter, so the DST change times almost opposite to each other. |
