Spring forward...Fall back....

It's ingrained in our consciousness almost as much as the A-B-Cs or our spelling reminder of "i before e...." And it's a regular event, though perhaps a bit less regular than the swallows coming back to Capistrano.

Yet in those four words is a whole collection of trivia, facts and common sense about Daylight Saving Time.

In 2005 and 2006, Daylight Saving Time begins for most of the United States at 2 a.m. on the first Sunday of April. (See chart below.) Time reverts to standard time at 2 a.m. on the last Sunday of October.

Beginning in 2007, Daylight Saving Time is extended one month and begins for most of the United States at:


2 a.m. on the Second Sunday in March
to
2 a.m. on the First Sunday of November.
(See chart below.)
The new starts and stop dates were set in the Energy Policy Act of 2005.

Answer 2

Daylight time begins in the United States on the first Sunday in April and ends on the last Sunday in October.

In 2006, daylight time begins on April 2 and ends on October 29.

In 2007, daylight time begins on March 11 and ends on November 4. [New law goes into effect.]

In 2008, daylight time begins on March 9 and ends on November 2.

Just remember to "spring" forward and "fall" backward.

(Don't you hate it when darkness comes so early in the day?)
