Nogales does not change its clocks
Nogales stays on Mountain Standard Time all year and does not move its clocks. Its offset from UTC never changes, so its relationship to the rest of the country shifts twice a year instead.
Nogales sits at 31.36°N, 110.93°W. For sunrise and sunset there — which do depend on exactly where it is, unlike the clock — see sunrise and sunset in Nogales.
Clock time against sun time
The clock says the same thing everywhere in Mountain Standard Time, but the sun does not. Over Nogales it is highest at 12:15 pm today — 15 minutes after clock noon.
At 110.9°W, Nogales sits close to the meridian its zone is named for, so clock time and sun time nearly agree.
