How do you indicate daylight savings time?
“Spring forward, fall back” is one of the little sayings used to remember which way to set your watch. You set your clock forward one hour in the spring when DST starts (= lose 1 hour), and back one hour when DST ends in the fall (= regain 1 hour).
How do other countries deal with daylight savings time?
All European Union countries and many European non-members continue to make the switch twice a year. Outside of Europe and North America, changing the clocks is also practiced in Argentina, Paraguay, Cuba, Haiti, the Levant, New Zealand and parts of Australia.
How does Google Calendar handle daylight savings?
Google Calendar uses Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) to help avoid issues with daylight saving time. When events are created, they're converted into UTC, but you'll always see them in your local time. If an area switches their time zone, events created before we knew about the change might be in the wrong time zone.
