Subject: Static GK (General Knowledge)

Book: General Time Knowledge

Daylight Saving Time typically begins in the second week of March and ends in the first week of November for regions observing Central Time in the United States. However, the exact dates can vary year to year. During this period, clocks move forward by one hour, shifting from CST (UTC−06:00) to CDT (UTC−05:00). People actively search for these start and end dates to avoid scheduling mishaps, especially with flights, conferences, or media broadcasts. Accurate knowledge of these transitions also helps in planning personal events, vacation itineraries, and adjusting daily routines to align with the earlier or later sunset and sunrise times.
