This years DST time in Brazil has one (or two) new situations:
* Tocantins state will have DST. For the new time zone I believe Palmas would be a good option as it's Tocantins capital and most populated city. * Bahia (another state) will not have DST. But I believe it havent' last year already but this has to be checked.
Here is a link to a news post in portuguese reporting this changes: http://noticias.terra.com.br/brasil/noticias/0,,OI6232536-EI306,00-TO+substi...
Now it seems that Tocantins might not observe DST after all, as told in the article link below, but it seems a bit unclear if they are actually able to revoke the DST or not, hopefully more details will follow. http://surgiu.com.br/noticia/54230/governo-volta-atras-e-decide-revogar-decr... And by the way, Bahia did observe DST last summer, so that is a change. Best regards, Steffen Thorsen - timeanddate.com
