As daylight savings time approaches, many are preparing to set their clocks forward one hour on Sunday, March 14th. This annual event marks the beginning of longer days and shorter nights as we move into the spring season.
While some may enjoy the extra hour of daylight in the evenings, others may struggle with the adjustment to losing an hour of sleep. Health experts recommend gradually adjusting your sleep schedule in the days leading up to the time change to minimize any negative effects on your body.
Daylight savings time also serves as a reminder to check and replace the batteries in your smoke detectors and carbon monoxide alarms. This simple task can help ensure the safety of you and your loved ones in the event of an emergency.
As we look forward to the warmer weather and longer days ahead, don’t forget to turn your clocks forward on March 14th and enjoy the extra daylight that daylight savings time brings.
