Daylight Saving Time (DST)

Most of the U.S. observes DST — clocks spring forward one hour on the second Sunday in March and fall back on the first Sunday in November.

Exceptions that do not observe DST:

Hawaii — minimal daylight variation year-round makes DST unnecessary
Arizona (most of the state) — extra evening heat makes shifting daylight undesirable; the Navajo Nation within Arizona does observe DST
