Daylight Saving Time Ends this Weekend

Written by Adam Hicks

Friday, October 30 2009

The bad news is that it we will have less daylight in the evenings. The good news is that we all get an extra hour of sleep this weekend.

Don’t forget that this weekend marks the end of daylight saving time. Clocks should officially be turned back one hour at 2:00 a.m. on Sunday.

Firefighters also say a good rule of thumb is to replace batteries in smoke and carbon monoxide detectors around the home during the time change.

What...again? This 'time change' thing seems to happen at least twice a year. I say we look into the carbon monixide/smoke detector lobby. I smell a rat.
