Set the clock ahead an hour Saturday night and welcome the return of daylight time

By Associated Press
4:06 AM CST, March 7, 2009

WASHINGTON (AP) — Heat up the grill and break out the badminton set: Daylight-saving time is returning to shift an hour of light to the evenings.

That means push the clocks ahead — spring forward — before going to bed Saturday night. The official change occurs at 2 a.m. Sunday, local time.

Daylight-saving time ends Nov. 1.

I don't notice much at all either. And I really do appreciate the extra hour of daylight in the evening. :flower;

If so I can't imagine why.
We've all got time enough to die.

Post by: dwcrawford on March 11, 2009, 09:01:00 PM: Oops... I forgot. It is Wednesday night. Should I set the clocks or not? Won't we just have to change them back this fall? I really have more important things to do.
