Will the TRNC revert to winter time in October?
Soon it will be winter in Cyprus and like in previous years, everyone will be waiting to see if the Turkish Republic of North Cyprus will observe the European winter time which begins on October 29.
In 2016, many people were left confused after the TRNC followed in the footstep of Turkey by deciding to stick with the summer time all year round and not return to daylight-saving (DST), in order to make better use of daylight during the winter period, (by not turning back the clock by an hour) in the autumn following the change in time in other parts of Europe.
This moves led to a lot of confusion and created a lot of problems especially for school children in the darker mornings.
At the time, it's southern Greek neighbors observed the winter time thereby creating two time zones, of one hour apart in the Mediterranean island.
It's almost that time again when other European countries will yet again observed the winter time on October 29. And the question is; 'Will the TRNC apply the time this year?'
Most of European and North America countries follows daylight time as do some parts of the Middle East, but most of Africa and Asia does not.
