TIME:...It's Fall...So Set Your Watch And Clock Back One Hour...See You Next March 10 For The Spring Forward...

 


STAFF REPORT

McALLEN, Texas | Well, we're back here. Yeah, that time of the year. Time change, Baby. Set your watch and clock back an hour at 2:00 AM tomorrow morning. You know the drill: Spring Forward; Fall Back.

We're into Fall, so fall back.

This from www.axios.com [ The biannual changing of the clocks takes place this Sunday as we "fall back" to standard time after nearly eight months in daylight saving time.

The twice-yearly clock changes likely won't stop anytime soon with efforts in Congress to make daylight saving time permanent stalled since March.

Health experts and lawmakers agree that switching the clock back and forth should end but haven't reached a consensus on whether permanent daylight saving time or year-round standard time is best.

In the 1970s, the last time Congress made daylight saving time permanent, the decision was reversed in less than a year after the early morning darkness proved dangerous for school children and public sentiment changed.]

So, enjoy the extra hour of sleep.

And see you March 10th for the next change...
