When the time is changed to winter.  Switching to winter time: where to change the clock and what you need to know about this day

The clocks were set one hour ahead on the last Sunday of March, and one hour ago on the last Sunday of October.
In the EU countries, the clocks are now switched to the night from Saturday to Sunday on the same weekend in March and October.
In the United States and Canada, daylight saving time starts on the second Sunday in March, and winter time starts on the first Sunday in November.

Clock change in March 2016

Since the autumn of 2014, there has been no seasonal clock change in Russia. The whole country lives according to winter time. However, on the last Sunday of March (March 27, 2016) in the Astrakhan region and the Trans-Baikal Territory at two in the morning Moscow time, the clock will need to be moved one hour ahead.
This change in local time will occur due to the change of time zones by regions. The Astrakhan region will move from the second (Moscow) time zone to the third, and the Trans-Baikal Territory (which united the Chita region and the Aginsk-Buryatsk region in 2008 autonomous region) from the seventh to the eighth.
Go to winter time in various regions of Russia: , , , , , , , , , , .

When will the change to winter time in 2014

Daylight Saving Time is traditionally held on the last Sunday in October.
On October 26, 2014 at 2:00 Moscow time, Russia will switch to winter time.
From now on, Moscow time will correspond to the third time zone (UTC +3). Now Moscow time corresponds to the fourth time zone (UTC +4). In other words, on the night from Saturday to Sunday, the clocks are moved back an hour.
The change in the time zone of Moscow time is carried out in accordance with the Federal Law No. 248-FZ of July 21, 2014 "On Amendments to the Federal Law" On the Calculation of Time ".
On October 26, 2014, winter time will be set throughout Russia, and in the future it is not planned to set the clock forward one hour (summer time) in the spring, and one hour back in the fall (winter time).

Full Moons and New Moons at the end of 2014 winter time

Due to the change in the time zone of Moscow time since October 26, 2014, the necessary adjustments have been made to the data of our website on the time of lunar events. In particular, the Moscow time of the Full Moon on November 7, Full Moon on December 6, the time of the beginning and end of the period of influence of the Full Moon in November and December 2014, New Moon on November 22, New Moon on December 22, 2014 has been corrected.

So, on the last Sunday of October (October 26), 2014, Russia will switch to winter time. At two o'clock in the morning Moscow time, all Russian regions (11 time zones) will simultaneously switch to winter time. On this night, in most regions of Russia, the clock hands will be moved back an hour. Moscow winter time from now on, the time will correspond to the third time zone (UTC +3).
Note that the transition to winter time for all regions of Russia is carried out simultaneously (this is not New Year, which “walks” across the country from east to west for half a day), and the moments of Full Moons and New Moons occur simultaneously for the entire globe. Therefore, in order to find out the time of these lunar events according to local time, it is necessary to add to Moscow time (and subtract for the Kaliningrad region) the corresponding deviation from Moscow winter time.

On the night from Saturday to Sunday, October 29 in Ukraine, the clocks are switched to winter time. The transition will take place an hour back at four o'clock in the morning. Thus, Ukrainians will be able to sleep an hour longer.

History

For the first time, the idea of ​​​​transferring clocks arose in the 17th century, its author was Benjamin Franklin. During his stay in Paris, the politician noticed that people were already sitting up in the evenings, burning a huge amount of candles and oil for the newfangled lamps at that time. And he thought that changing the time by just an hour would save a huge amount of resources.

Then Germany and England officially switched to daylight saving time in 1916 in order to save energy. In the spring, the hands of all clocks were moved forward an hour and returned back in the fall. Since then, the watch began to translate more than a hundred countries, writes the magazine "Around the World".

Thus, the clock shift is carried out so that people can work longer and, at the same time, use less artificial lighting. After all, even now we get up at the beginning of daylight hours, and go to bed much later than its end.

The transition to winter and summer time takes place in accordance with the Decree of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine dated May 13, 1996 No. 509 "On the procedure for calculating time on the territory of Ukraine."

The country has repeatedly proposed to abandon the transfer of arrows. The last time this happened last year - a bill on this was submitted by one of the people's deputies. Before that, Ukraine refused to change clocks in 2011. Then they left summer time, but a number of experts criticized this decision, stating that winter time is more natural for Ukraine. In 2012, the country returned to the translation of arrows.

Health impact

Doctors have a number of arguments against the transition to winter time, primarily regarding the negative impact on human health and the small share of artificial lighting in total energy consumption. According to some reports, in the first days after the transfer of arrows, there is an increased number of suicides, as well as heart attacks.

The exacerbation of cardiovascular diseases may be associated with a violation of the sleep schedule, so doctors recommend smoothly adapting to the new schedule. A few days in advance, start shifting your bedtime to correct regimen gradually, 15 minutes at a time. Avoid alcohol, caffeine, fatty and fried foods, especially before bed.

Lack of sleep due to a violation of the regimen also leads to an increase in the number of accidents, so it is advisable not to sit on the role immediately after the clock has been turned.

As for the exacerbation of depressive states, the reason is the seasonal reduction in daylight hours and lack of sunlight. Doctors advise giving up caffeine, getting enough sleep and walking more during the day in the fresh air.

The transition to winter time in 2017 in Europe will take place on Sunday, October 29. The Ukrainians will move the clock back one hour.

In 2017, the clock change will take place on the night of Saturday to Sunday, October 29, at 4 am. Clock hands should be moved back an hour, so people will have more time to sleep.

In the 17th century, the famous politician Benjamin Franklin, during a visit to Paris, noticed that people used a huge amount of candles and began to think about how people could save an expensive resource. In the end, he came to the conclusion that changing the time by just an hour would save a huge amount of candles.

After a satirical essay about the need to switch to summer time and then to winter time, more and more scientists from around the world began to come to a conclusion. it's just necessary condition for a successful economy.

Germany and England then officially switched to daylight saving time in 1916 to save energy by moving all clocks forward an hour in the spring and back in the fall. Since then, the clock began to translate more than a hundred countries.

It is worth noting that from time to time different countries either refuse to transfer time, then return to this tradition.

The system of summer and winter time in Europe was introduced at the beginning of the last century. Though modern technologies repeatedly confirmed that this step is not a way to save electricity, and leading doctors talk about the violation of human biorhythms, European states continue to switch to winter and summer time.

Until now, the hands of the clock translate: Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova, Ukraine, Estonia.

The change of time from winter to summer and vice versa is carried out in accordance with the directive of the European Union, which obliges all member states to comply with this law, the Rosregistr website reports. Within the EU, this happens simultaneously on the last Sunday in March (when the clock is moved forward one hour) and the last Sunday in October (when the clock is moved back one hour).

Note that in different countries it happens in different time, since in Europe the transition to winter time is carried out not according to local time, but according to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT), more precisely, according to Coordinated Universal Time (UTC).

So, for example, Londoners will move the clock at two in the morning local time, and residents of Germany, France and Italy - at three in the morning. Citizens of Turkey, Greece and Finland will be able to sleep an hour longer only after four in the morning.

In total, 78 countries use the transition to "summer" and "winter" time in one form or another.

In Russia, since 1917 and during the times of the USSR, the practice of switching arrows was either introduced or canceled. In 2011, Russian President Dmitry Medvedev canceled the seasonal clock change. Since then, the Russians no longer translate the clock.

The clocks are changed so that people can work longer and use less artificial lighting. The idea of ​​translation is economic and optimizing.

The positions of doctors on the “hour issue” are somewhat divergent: some believe that the change of clocks twice a year does not in any way affect a person’s well-being, while others hold the opposite opinion.

Switching to "winter time"

On October 26, 2014, residents of most regions of Russia (but not all) will move their clocks back one hour - for them, the so-called, from fresh memory, "switching to winter time", and those who remember Soviet times may say that "this is the return of standard time." Residents of the Samara region, Udmurtia, the Kemerovo region, Kamchatka and Chukotka do not have to worry about their watches - they do not need to do anything with the clock and the countdown of the local (zonal) time will not change for them. Here, the residents Transbaikalia And Magadan region, in general, they will change the clock two hours ago.

What will actually happen over time?
In accordance with the amendments to the law "On the calculation of time":
Firstly, the order of counting Moscow time (MSK) is changing - it will become less different from astronomical and instead of MCK=UTC+4, it will be MCK=UTC+3.
Secondly, the number of time zones and their regional composition is changing. There will be two new time zones MSK + 1 and MSK + 9, into which Samara Region, Republic of Udmurtia and Kamchatka Krai, Chukotka Autonomous Region, respectively. In addition, there are still permutations within the existing zones. To understand all this, a visual display of the new and old order of calculating time in our country was created.

When is the best time to move the hands on your watch?

So, most people in Russia will have to get used to the new daily routine. Here are some summary psychological advice, which will facilitate the transition to a new rhythm:

It is best to set all the clocks in the house and devices with clocks that are not personally tied to you to the new time just before you start preparing for bed on the eve of October 26th.
But what to do with a personal clock and alarm clock is worth considering:
- if the next day you have events tied to time, then, definitely, you need to set your clock to a new time before going to bed;
- if you just want to relax and sleep, then it’s better not to touch your watch until the next day, in the morning a gift will be waiting for you - an extra hour!
For those people who find it difficult to move from one rhythm to another, it is best not to move their clocks for a few more days, consciously comparing the new time with the old, you need to gradually adjust your regimen to the new rhythm of time.

Switching to "winter time" - is it good or bad?

The transition to a new time calculation is definitely good for all the inhabitants of the country.
And it's not that in the old calculation of time after Euro Cup matches, crowds of fans wandered around at night trying to get home from the clubs, or someone had to wake up from the cries of "G-o-o-l!!!" for the whole block at one in the morning, or the fact that children cannot be put to bed at the beginning of summer because it is still light. - Everything is much deeper: the matter is in human biorhythms.
Each of us has an internal clock that does not depend on our consciousness, and we are aware of its presence only as a "sense of time". For some, these hours are somewhat in a hurry relative to the duration of the earth's day - these are "larks", for some they are lagging behind - these are "owls" and only a relatively few lucky ones keep pace with. If the "lark" is placed in a room without windows, the clock is taken away from him, then very soon he will switch to his internal daily rhythm, which will be, for example, 18 or 22 hours, and the "owls", on the contrary, will tune in to the day at 26 or even 30 hours . A natural standard for adjusting the internal clock to the rhythm of the earth's day is daylight hours. One way or another, we subconsciously orient ourselves to the local astronomical noon. With the new calculus, the officially counted time, although it does not coincide, is much closer to the local astronomical one!
- This means that the new rhythm is closer to the one naturally inherent in us - there will be less stress, neuroses and other mental illnesses ...

The history of clock hand games begins in 1917.
Before that, in Russia there was a single time for all railway stations countries (the time of the Tsarskoselsky railway station in St. Petersburg), and the trains ran in such a way that the clocks were compared on them, in addition, local time was set in each province, coinciding with astronomical time.
The revolutionary initiative was started by the Provisional Government in the summer of 1917 - July 1 introduced summer time, but "forgotten" to change it. By the old time, the country returned only in December by decree of the Council of People's Commissars of the RSFSR - it was necessary to save electricity!
Until 1919, no one dealt with time more centrally - it wasn’t before that, and at the local level the “arrows were turned” - whoever wanted to.
In February 1919, a decree on standard time was issued - for another two years they selected the most economical rhythm for hour stations, and after 1922 they stopped rushing between summer and winter time.
In 1930, on June 21, the hands of all clocks in the country (already in the CCCP) were moved one hour ahead, UTC + 3 was set in Moscow, and the games were eventually abandoned for 50 years.
Everything resumed in 1981. After the death of A.N. Kosygin, they decided to introduce summer time, and this order lasted until 1991. In 1991, the Cabinet of Ministers of the USSR, finally, decided to do something else with time - "maternity time" was canceled, a year later it was returned "at the request of the workers", in 2011 they finally stopped turning the arrows back and forth every six months, but they turned out to be not very well established, and now we are back to the old countdown of the era of continuous development of the country MCK=UTC+3! Here, I wonder, will future leaders have enough patience for 50 years?
And about the "paradoxes of time": in our country, games with time are always started in an era of instability and stop when everyone starts doing their own thing.

On July 14 (July 1, according to the old style), 1917, the transition from "winter" to "summer" time was carried out for the first time in Russia.

The expression summer time (summer time or Daylight Saving Time) means an hour ahead of the time accepted in the given time zone. It is introduced for the summer period in order to save electricity by the governments of a number of countries approximately north of 30 ° north latitude and south of 30 ° south latitude.

Switching clock hands to "summer" time is not advisable everywhere. In tropical latitudes (less than 23.5°), daylight hours vary little throughout the year. In polar latitudes (more than 66.33°) there is a polar day and a polar night. The effect of shifting clock hands to "summer" and "winter" time can take place in the latitude range from 30 to 55 °.

The duration of "summer" time in different countries decreases from north to south, amounting to 20-30 weeks in April-May, summer months and September-October (in the northern hemisphere) and about 20 weeks in November-March (in the southern hemisphere) . With a significant decrease in the duration of daylight hours, the time is transferred back an hour. The mode of life according to the usual zone time in everyday life is called "winter" time.

For the first time, the idea of ​​\u200b\u200btransferring clocks arose in the 18th century with the American public figure Benjamin Franklin (Benjamin Franklin) in order to save candles for lighting, but was blocked by candle manufacturers.

In 1895, New Zealand entomologist George Vernon Hudson submitted a paper to the Wellington Philosophical Society proposing a two-hour shift to preserve daylight.

The idea of ​​introducing "summer" time found support in most economically developed countries at the beginning of the 20th century, during the period of mass electrification of industry and everyday life. A more rational use of daylight was supposed to reduce the cost of electricity for lighting the premises.

In Great Britain, in 1909, a bill was drawn up on the introduction of "summer" time, which was repeatedly considered in Parliament, but was not adopted until the First World War.

Many states immediately after the end of the war abandoned "summer" time, others repeatedly introduced this time, then abandoned it, and some countries maintained such a time shift throughout the year.

Transfer to "summer" time was introduced in case of crisis situations, for example, during the Second World War (USA, Great Britain), during the oil crisis of 1973-1974 (USA, Germany and other countries).

In Russia, for the first time, this transition was carried out on July 1 (July 14, according to the new style), 1917, when, in accordance with the decree of the Provisional Government, the hands of all clocks in the country were moved one hour ahead.

They were transferred back on December 27, 1917 (January 9, 1918, according to the new style), already in accordance with the decree of the Council of People's Commissars of December 22, 1917 (January 4, 1918, according to the new style).

The practice of switching from "summer" to "winter" time continued until 1924.

Decree of the Council of People's Commissars of the USSR of June 16, 1930 introduced maternity time on the territory of the USSR. Then the hands of the clock were moved one hour ahead of standard time and after that they were not moved back, and the country began to live and work all year round, one hour ahead of the natural daily cycle. The transfer of clock hands to "summer" time was resumed from April 1, 1981, but already relative to the daylight savings time. Thus, in the country "summer" time was two hours ahead of standard time.

In the USSR, and since 1991 in Russia, the introduction of "summer" time was carried out on the night of the last Saturday on the last Sunday of March, and "winter" on the night of the last Saturday on the last Sunday of September.

In 1996, the period of validity of "summer" time in Russia was "in order to observe a single time regime with other countries. The transition to" winter "time began to be carried out on the last Sunday of October, as in all of Europe.

At the same time, the majority of the Russian population opposed summer time.

July 21, 2014 Russian President Vladimir Putin on Russia's transition from October 26, 2014 to "winter" time. In most constituent entities of the Russian Federation, the clocks were set back an hour, and in the future, the seasonal translation of the hands was not carried out. Five regions of Russia (Udmurtia, Samara Region, Kemerovo Region, Kamchatka Territory and Chukotka Autonomous Okrug) did not switch to "winter" time.

After that, complaints began to come from a number of regions about the lack of sunlight in the evenings. In 2016, the Russian authorities approved laws that made it possible to move the clock forward: in the Republic of Altai, Altai and Trans-Baikal Territories, Sakhalin, Astrakhan, Magadan, Tomsk, Ulyanovsk, Novosibirsk and.

Currently, there is no consensus among experts and the international community on the significant savings in energy resources during the transition to daylight saving time.

In 2017, more than 70 countries and territories implemented the transition to "summer" / "winter" time. From the former Soviet republics"summer" time was introduced only by Moldova, Ukraine and the three Baltic republics - Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia.
