Thread: Namibian WINTER TIME

Dear Shebeeners, just a reminder for the "dreaded" Winter Time:


NAMIBIA CHANGES TO WINTER TIME ON SUNDAY, 6 APRIL 2008

At 02:00 on Sunday, 6 April 2008, Namibians have to turn their clocks back one hour to enter winter time, which is one hour in advance of Greenwich Mean Time.

This practice is in accordance with the Namibian Time Act, 1994, Act. No. 3 of 1994, which regulates winter and summer time in Namibia.

The Act stipulates that Namibia enters winter time at 02:00 on the first Sunday in April of every year and reverts back to summer time at 02:00 on the first Sunday of September every year. During summer time Namibia is two hours in advance of Greenwich Mean Time.
