U.S.: Are you ready for the new Daylight Savings Time switch this Sunday?

Question

*Typo - Saving, not Savings

Answer 1

I AM SO READY FOR IT TO STAY LIGHTER LONGER!!

Answer 2

I am so ready for Daylight Saving Time (saving, not savings). I'm tired of driving home in the dark. I want to hang out in my back yard and crank up the BBQ and cook outside.

Answer 3

Spring ahead, fall back.....

Starting in 2007, daylight time begins in the United States on the second Sunday in March and ends on the first Sunday in November. On the second Sunday in March, clocks are set ahead one hour at 2:00 a.m. local standard time, which becomes 3:00 a.m. local daylight time. On the first Sunday in November, clocks are set back one hour at 2:00 a.m. local daylight time, which becomes 1:00 a.m. local standard time. These dates were established by the Energy Policy Act of 2005, Pub. L. no. 109-58, 119 Stat 594 (2005).

Not all places in the U.S. observe daylight time. In particular, Hawaii and most of Arizona do not use it.

Remember to change the batteries in your smoke detector when you change your clocks....Many fire departments encourage people to change the batteries in their smoke detectors when they change their clocks because Daylight Saving Time provides a convenient reminder. "A working smoke detector more than doubles a person's chances of surviving a home fire," says William McNabb of the Troy Fire Department in Michigan. More than 90 percent of homes in the United States have smoke detectors, but one-third are estimated to have dead or missing batteries.

Answer 4

OMG, I was just thinking about asking this question....yes I am ready, I like it cuz we get out of work earlier, though on the down side it is harder to get up in the morning

Answer 5

I live in Arizona, so it's irrelevant to me! Mwuhahahahaha! We don't need to save ANY sunlight. We get plenty here in the desert.

Answer 6

I am. I am sick of getting up when it is dark and not getting off work until it is dark, well it is still light for like 45 minutes after I get home, but you knowwhat I mean

Answer 7

i hate it! i live in the states and work in Mexico. I have to get up at 6am (5am in Mexico) to make breakfast for my hubby and then wait another hour to go to work? and when I come back home it's going to be late and he will not wait for me to have dinner! thank god the difference will be only for 2 weeks!

Answer 8

I strongly protest them stealing an hour of my sleep! If they want to Spring Ahead, that's fine, but do it during normal daytime hours!

Answer 9

I can barely get outta bed now.I don't know who the heck changes those things for us but I sure hope they never encounter me on one of my tired days!!!!
