yes. because it is based on the west coast in the USA, the time will advance: 1 hour forward.

From: Lee Ponzu what if your script is scheduled to do something once per day, between 2 and 3 am? Eill it be skipped? Yes -- just like any other computer activity And in the fall, if you have something scheduled to run between 1 and 2, it will run twice.

The US is switching to DST on this weekend, while in Europe it's on the 29th of March. So for the next two weeks the time difference between the US and Europe is one hour less. Good to keep in mind when planning a rendez-vous.  |

The worst thing about daylight savings is the amount of British people who don't realise we're no longer on GMT.

I think I am now totally confused on what time it will be anywhere tomorrow. I'll have to keep the website up that tells me what time it is all over the world.

and where I am, we do not do anything to the clocks, but we do check the smoke detector batteries, so just a friendly reminder, when you set that clock, check those batteries in the smoke detector
