Fwd: Daylight Saving Time (DST) change -- first half of 2021

Hi Web Advertising BG,

Our meetings are anchored to the U.S. Eastern timezone (11 AM Eastern).
Please be aware of the upcoming daylight saving time desynchronization,
described below. I know and appreciate that we have participants from
around the globe. If anyone thinks we should re-evaluate the regular
meeting time, let me know.

Thanks,
--Wendy

Dear Chairs,

This is a Semi-annual reminder of the upcoming Daylight Saving Time
(DST) change:
      https://www.timeanddate.com/time/dst/2021a.html

Most of the US and Canada will be moving their clocks forward on Sunday,
14 March. This is two weeks earlier than Europe. Most European clocks
will move 1 hour forward on Sunday, 28 March.

Between 14 March and 28 March, the teleconferences that are scheduled
according to the US clock will start *one hour earlier* in local time
for most Europeans.

China, Japan and Russia do not observe DST, which means the time
difference between these areas and US/Europe will be one hour less than
it currently is.

For locations that observe DST in Australia and New Zealand, their
clocks will shift back on Sunday, 4 April.

Please share this information with your groups, as it will have an
impact on teleconferences. If you are unsure about the scheduled time of
any teleconference, please confirm the time arrangements with your
meeting host.

The meeting planner tool below may be helpful to find the time for your
web meeting across time zones:
