DST rule in California

[Jesper Nørgaard]

The official statute about time zone handling in Mexico has been issued, either yesterday or the day before, February 1.

The only difference of what I have sent to the mailing list previously is that surprisingly Baja California (North) state is not following the new schedule, but instead follows normal Pacific Time as for instance the California state in USA. This means that it starts DST First Sunday in April 2001 at 2:00 and ends DST Last Sunday in October 2001, while most of the other locations in Mexico (with exception of the state of Sonora) starts DST First Sunday in May at 2:00 and end DST Last Sunday in September at 2:00.
