[EnergyPlus_Support] Daylight Savings Time

["Griffith, Brent" <brent_griffith@xxxxxxxx>]

Does anyone know what actually happens when Daylight Savings Time is turned
"on" in EnergyPlus?  A simple test comparing annual runs with and without
DST showed no difference in the hourly results.  I used normal EnergyPlus
weather files and the object "DaylightSavingPeriod, 1st Sunday in April,
Last Sunday in October;"  Do the output time stamps shift with DST or do
they stay in Standard time?  What happens to those messy hours at the point
of change?
