Detecting your time zone to suggest the best hour to call…

Because Arizona skips daylight saving, for the summer half of the year Phoenix and Tucson match California's Pacific clock rather than their Mountain-time neighbours.

Arizona stays on UTC-7 all year and does not change its clocks for daylight saving time. Arizona does not observe daylight saving time (the Navajo Nation does).
