Digital News Report – Fall is back and today it’s time to turn back the clock one hour for Daylight Savings 2010. While some clocks will automatically adjust because they sync with the atomic clock, you should remember to go around and make sure all of your clocks are set back one hour.

Some clocks that adjust automatically may need to be double checked because Daylight Savings was moved from its regular planned time. This means that some clocks may have adjusted a week or so earlier.

Computers should automatically adjust to Daylight Savings, however, Apple iPhone, iPad or iPod had problems with adjusting to daylight saving with their alarm clock. Europeans that used the Apple products as an alarm clock woke up an hour late today.

Some areas don’t adjust their clocks for Daylight Savings. Most of the continent of Africa, Asian countries, parts of Australia, and most of South America do not participate in the time change. In the United States, most of Arizona does not observe daylight savings time.

If you are not sure what time it is you can always go to http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/ and find out.

  1. If Saskatchewan which is principally a farming province, as is Arizona. If these communities can manage without Daylight Saving Tme which was conceived for the benefit of farmers why do we have to put up with it. This was nuisance enough when a household would have 1 or 2 clocks but we all nowadays have several clocks, watches, VCR’s,TV’s,DVD’s,ovens,alarm systems that have to be changed. It is a monumental pain. Why is it not dropped?. This is made worse when the date is changed by a week for what reson? and those appliances that are automatically altered have to be altered twice.

  2. I agree with commenter W.R Milne. (Wish we had a chance to vote on this!) However, there are some problems with the article itself.

    1) It’s Daylight “SAVING” (no “s”) – “not Savings”.
    2) Daylight Saving Time starts in the Spring. When we “fall back” in November, we are actually ending DST and returning to Standard Time.
    3) Hawaii also does not observe DST. (Nor do the US territories of American Samoa, Guam, Puerto Rico, and the US Virgin Islands)

  3. Why does my atomic clock take about 2 days to adjust to the change from Daylight Saving Time to Pacific Standard Time here in Everett, WA?
