Yeah, I remember finding that a bit confusing when driving through AZ some
years ago -- the time kept changing, and I didn't know why.

Hawaii also doesn't observe DST, and until quite recently neither did

Indiana.

Try Idaho. I don't know what they do about DST but the south part of
the state is in Mountain time, the northern part in Pacific Time. I
have no clue as to why. The western border runs due N-S so why does
the time zone take a zig?...Perhaps economics as the northern part is
more connected to Washington state economically.

I suspect that on one side of the line is Spokane and the other is Coeur
d'Alene and there is not much in idaho east of Coeur d'Alene.

Several states have 2 time zones and seems that the areas of population
density in adjacent states seem to be the reason.
