Only Hawaii, most of Arizona, American Samoa, Guam, Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands do not change with the rest of the country as they are always on Standard Time.<\/p>\n<p>Arizona opts out of Daylight Saving Time as an energy-saving measure for the desert cities of Phoenix and Tucson, while Hawaii and other islands near the equator do not experience large variations in daylight.<\/p>\n<p>Americans are divided on whether changing time twice a year is a good thing. A poll by the \u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/apnorc.org\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><a href=\"https:\/\/apnorc.org\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research<\/a> last month found that only 12% of U.S. adults favor the current system, while 47% are opposed and 40% are neutral.<\/p>\n<p>President Trump has called for making daylight saving time permanent, but legislation to achieve this is stalled in Congress. So for now, we need to keep changing our clocks.<\/p>\n<p>The change offers an extra hour of sleep. It\u2019s also a reminder to make sure smoke detectors have fresh batteries and that sprinklers aren\u2019t wasting water.<\/p>\n<p>The\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.calif.aaa.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Automobile Club of Southern California<\/a>\u00a0warns drivers to be on the lookout for children and other pedestrians, since it will be dark an hour earlier in the evenings.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re not sure about the correct time, visit\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/time.gov\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Time.Gov<\/a>\u00a0for the official word from the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.usno.navy.mil\/USNO\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">U.S. Naval Observatory<\/a>\u2018s\u00a0\u201cmaster clock.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>READ NEXT<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The historic Rotary International clock in Liberty Station.
