DESCRIPTION:

Daylight Savings in Brazil’s Southern states commences on the 3rd Sunday in October (Spring Forward) and ends on the 3rd Sunday in February (Fall Back).

On this day we move the clock one hour ahead at 2AM in October or one hour back in February at 2AM in the morning on Sunday.

The saying, “spring forward, fall back” is a good way to remember. This works in the Northern and Southern Hemispheres as the seasons are reversed.

Benjamin Franklin was the first to propose daylight savings time in 1784. Modern DST was established in 1895. Throughout history there were several variations ranging from 30 minutes to two hours.

Not everyone observes DST, which can make setting appointments very challenging. The main purpose of DST is to make better use of daylight hours for farming, early morning activities (such as children walking to school in the light instead of dark) and saving energy.

The closer one lives to the North and South Pole, the longer the period of daylight in the summer months.
