Not the entire state of Arizona !!
There is part of an Indian Reservation in the Northeast corner of the state
that does observe DST.
Now this is really OT !!

It used to be: Spring ahead, Fall back. Now it is Winter ahead, Fall
back. Except in parts of Indiana and the entire state of Arizona. I
once crossed the Hoover Dam to have a two hour time difference at the
other side. That was odd!

Today, Sunday March 8th, 2015, is the DST Transition day, so-called
Spring Forward, so today has only 23 hours. Count them, 23 hours.
In the Fall, we have a day with 25 hours.
So, is today a slow day? If you pile in the same activity and number
of events today as any other ordinary 24 hour Sunday, then you might
say it is a Fast Day. I mean, Events per Hour must go up if Events
are constant and hours drop by 1.
But, it could also be a fast day just merely thinking that at 23
hours, there is less time to complete this day and thus tomorrow
comes more quicker -- thus, today must be faster.
How is it that your day is slower?

P.S. Yes, I am waiting for the varnish to dry on the raised panel
door out in the garage. When you are waiting, time marches on at a
slower pace -- so, maybe today is a slow day if you are waiting for
something.

They moved the length of DST due to energy conservation issues, Kevin:
"The current schedule was introduced in 2007 and follows the Energy
Policy Act of 2005
<http://www.timeanddate.com/laws/us/energypolicyact2005.html>, which
extended the period by about one month. Today, DST starts on the
second Sunday in March and ends on the first Sunday in November."

It appears I have missed the change to daylight savings time. Why
in the world did they change it so early?
At any rate stick with the local times and change the Z time.
The sunspot number is low but the solar flux is over 100 which
bodes well for this afternoon's nets.
