Daylight Savings: Here's When You'll Need To Change Your Clocks If You Live In The Northeast
Get ready to kiss that sweet sunlight goodbye, as Daylight saving time will soon be coming to an end. For Eastern Standard Time, the big change will happen on the first Sunday of November. Specifically, EDT will be observed until 2 a.m. Sunday, Nov. 3, when we will gain an hour of sleep but push the time back on the clock by one hour. Daylight saving time, sometimes referred to as daylight saving time or Eastern Daylight Time, is the practice of advancing the clocks four hours behind Coordinated Universal Time. That's the change that happens in the spring and summer Eastern Standard …

Senate Totally OK With Making Daylight Saving Time Permanent, Are You? (
Poll
)
Members of the US Senate unanimously passed a bill appropriately called "The Sunshine Protection Act" that would do away with "springing ahead" and "falling back." The vote went down Tuesday, March 15 — less than 48 hours after the clocks skipped ahead. So, are you in? (Story continues after poll). If the legislation passes the House and gets President Biden's stamp of approval, it would go into effect November 2023. The bill was introduced by Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), and backed by Dems Ron Wyden of Oregon, and Ed Markey of Massachusetts. Markey and Rubio argue in an Op-Ed on daylight sa…

A change in the weather pattern will bring in the coldest air of the season. And as the air interacts with multiple storm systems, snow could develop as the calendar flips to November, according to AccuWeather.com forecasters. "Could we be talking about snow across parts of the Midwest and Northeast?” AccuWeather Chief On-Air Meteorologist Bernie Rayno said. “Maybe.” That comment, made on Thursday, Oct. 28, is consistent with an earlier forecast by AccuWeather's Senior Meteorologist Paul Pastelok who said more than a month ago that there could be “a couple of rounds of cold weath…

Worth Losing Sleep Over: Spring Forward This Weekend
We'll be springing forward this weekend (QUICK: Which two U.S. states don't follow Daylight Saving Time?). Unless you still have a flip, your cellphone will take care of the change from 2 a.m. to 3 a.m. this Sunday. The same for most digital devices. We'll have to take care of traditional clocks and those in older-model vehicles, stoves, microwaves, etc. So long, seasonal affective disorder! ****** If you're having trouble getting to sleep, consider: It's "Daylight Saving," not "Savings"; Benjamin Franklin came up with the idea 235 years ago (1784); When it was established in the U.S.…

Did You Remember To Spring Forward For Daylight Saving Time?
Did you remember to change your clock? Daylight Saving Time went into effect at 2 a.m. on Sunday, March 12, marking its 100th year. Local officials also recommend checking and changing batteries on smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. Daylight Saving began during World War I and used again during World War II as an energy saving initiative. It didn't become a (mostly) nationwide event until the Uniform Time Act of 1966. Arizona and Hawaii do not participate Daylight Saving Time's eight-month run lasts through early November.
