DST offsets other than +1
by Doug Ewell March 4, 2025

March 4, 2025

1. Are there any time zones that currently observe DST with an offset other than adding one hour? (For this question, I am treating “negative DST” zones like Europe/Dublin and Africa/Windhoek as if they observed “standard” time in winter and adjusted time in summer. Also, for this question I am only interested in current practice, not historical.) 2. Is there an easy way I could have looked up this information in the tz files? (“Easy” means without exhaustively parsing all the Rule and Zone lines, as a processor would have to do.) Thanks, -- Doug Ewell, CC, ALB | Lakewood, CO, US | ewellic.org

North Dakota HB 1259 requiring year-round standard time
by asinglet＠epic.com March 1, 2025

March 1, 2025

https://legiscan.com/ND/text/HB1259/2025 HB 1259 passed the North Dakota House last week. No idea on whether it will pass the ND Senate or be signed into law. The tricky thing about this bill is that it does not have an implementation time frame. Theoretically if it moves through in the next week or two, we could be looking at a repeat of the Lebanon 2023 fiasco. I hope if they are going to pass it, they take their time.
