DAYLIGHT SAVING 2019
On March 10th, 2019, Daylight Saving Time is back in the United States. Remember to move your watch 1 hour forward Sunday, March 10th ..... at 2:00 am .....> 3:00 am. You will sleep 1 hour less!The Standard Daylight Time will then return on November 3rd, 2019 .... & then, we'll get back that hour of sleep we lost in March!!
Did you know that the state of Arizona is the only state that does not adhere to daylight saving time in the US?
Most of Arizona does not use daylight saving time. The only exception is the Navajo Nation Region, where the clocks will go forward 1 hour as the rest of the United States on the second Sunday of March and move back again on the first Sunday of November.
Now, let's see what March has in store for us in NYC:
This year the Parade will be held on Saturday March 16th, 2019, as always along Fifth Avenue from 44th Street to 79th - Start time is 11am and it will run until 5pm.
If you do not like big crowds, since every year the parade brings together about 2 million viewers with 250 thousand participants, we recommend moving towards the end of the parade along Fifth Avenue and Central Park.
