Fall Back This Weekend!

It's that time again.  You'll be getting an extra hour of sleep this Sunday as we get ready to turn the clocks back one hour on Saturday night.  This is also a great time to change the batteries in your Smoke/Carbon Monoxide Detectors.

Time Change in the Fall
On the first Sunday in November daylight saving time ends and the clocks "fall back" one hour. This happens at 2am, so you should turn your clocks back one hour before you go to bed on Saturday evening. Daylight Savings Time takes place this Sunday and for next year it will be on November 4th.

• Sunday November 6, 2011
• Sunday November 4, 2012

Don't Forget to Change the Time on Your:

• Alarm clocks
• Wall clocks
• Watches
• Desk clocks
• Kitchen appliances (microwave, coffeemaker, etc)
• TV/VCR
• Car Stereos or Clocks

Most Cell Phones, Blackberries, iPhones, Cable Boxes will change themselves.  Double check before making an adjustment. :)

Daylight Savings Time will stay with us until the Spring.  Enjoy the extra daylight, and make a note that March 11th is when you'll be changing the clocks ahead one hour.  Again, it is good practise to change the batteries in your Smoke/Carbon Monoxide Detectors at this time.

Time Change in the Spring
On the second Sunday in March daylight saving time begins and the clocks "spring forward" one hour. This happens at 2am, so you should change your clocks by moving the time one hour ahead before going to bed on these Saturday evenings in Spring 2012 and Spring 2013.
