When is daylight savings time?
Technically speaking, Daylight Savings Time began last March at 2:00 AM. It actually ends on Sunday, November 2nd at 2:00 AM. So what that means is that after 1:59 AM, the next minute will be 1:00 AM.
How do I change the clocks for daylight savings time?
You’ll want to move the clocks one hour back before you go to sleep. If you’ve got a cell phone, don’t worry because those automatically adjust to the time. If you live in either Arizona or Hawaii, don’t do anything because those two states never recognized daylight savings in the first place.
Remember the simple phrase “Spring forward, fall back” and you’ll never forget which way to move the clocks again.
How will daylight savings time effect me?
First off, make no mistake about it–you’re losing an hour of sleep. If you’re already showing up to class or work feeling tired, you’re in for a real doozy. We suggest going to sleep an hour earlier to make sure you’re ready for optimal reading of COED.com come Monday morning.
