Spring Ahead! Daylight Saving Time Begins – It’s that time again! Time to SPRING AHEAD! or Spring Forward however you want to look at it. Basically for most of us we set our clocks ahead an hour before we go to bed. It means it is Day Lights Saving Time Begins! Note Saving with no “s” not Savings.

Spring Ahead! Daylight Saving Time Begins

That means we lose one hour. If you don’t set your clocks ahead one hour you will be late for church. You will be arriving as everyone else is leaving. We set our times ahead at 2:00 a.m. making it 3:00 a.m. That means one less hour of sleep so you may want to go to bed earlier.

We Spring Ahead in Spring … Before you go to bed on Saturday, March 11, 2017, be sure to set your clocks ahead one hour. If you forget, you may just be late for church in the morning, because official time change is at 2 am on Sunday, March 12, 2017.

While you are up changing the time on the clocks; it is still a good idea to also change your batteries in all your safety equipment such as smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, weather radios, flash lights, etc.

Check this post on Fire Safety 101.

I know that most clocks now are atomic or self adjusting to time changes, but we still should at least set this day aside for changing our batteries in our life saving devices.

Change your clock, change your battery!

We fall back in the fall … Sunday, November 5, 2017 at 2 a.m. when Daylight Saving Time Ends. In about 8 months from now.

Also check out the Change Your Clock, Change Your Battery about changing your batteries when you change your time on your clocks.
