Date is Daylight Saving Time in Europe 2010

Date is Daylight Saving Time in Europe 2010 : Daylight Saving Time begins in the spring, when you set your clocks ahead one hour. It ends in the fall, when you set your clocks back to standard time. In the US, you are notified in the news media when these changes occur. There is no federal law that states must abide by these changes, and some locations in the US choose not to.

This weekend's time-shift will again plunge millions of Australians into temporary sleep debt, which experts warn can trigger a jump in workplace accidents and heart attacks. Clocks will be turned forward an hour in the eastern states, excluding Queensland, and in South Australia at 2am on Sunday to start daylight saving for the 2010-11 summer.
In the US and Canada
Daylight Saving Time always begins on the second Sunday of March and ends on the first Sunday of November.
