Mainland shifts to daylight savings time

Advertiser Staff

It's official: Daylight savings time arrived this morning in almost every state in the country.

Most people had to move their clocks and watches one hour forward.

That means California is now three hours ahead of Hawai'i, the Midwest is five hours ahead, and the East Coast is 6 hours ahead.

If you're lucky enough to live in Hawai'i — or Arizona, for that matter — you didn't have to bother resetting your timepiece.

They are the only two states in the country that don't have to remember to "spring forward" or "fall back," since neither observes daylight savings time.
