Don't Forget! Clocks Go Back This Sunday in Waterford
It's that time of year again - the dreaded time change! This Sunday, November 5th, we spring forward (or should we say "fall back"?) into Standard Time. That means we get an extra hour of sleep, but also have to adjust to the earlier sunsets.
What Does This Mean for You?
- Extra Hour of Sleep: Yes, you read that right! On Sunday morning, set your clocks back one hour at 2:00 AM. Get ready for a cozy, extra-long slumber!
- Earlier Sunset: While it's great to gain an hour of sleep, it also means the sun will be setting earlier. So, grab those cozy blankets, light some candles, and get ready for some early evening snuggles!
- Potential for Confusion: This is a big one! Make sure you adjust all your clocks and devices, or you could end up missing appointments or showing up way too early for dinner.
Why Do We Still Do This?
Honestly, this whole thing is a bit of a mystery. The idea of Daylight Saving Time was to save energy, but studies have shown that it actually has little impact. There are lots of arguments for and against it, but one thing is for sure - it's a huge pain to remember to change your clocks!
So, what are you waiting for? Get ready for the time change this Sunday! Don't forget to set those clocks back, or you might end up having a very confusing day.
Pro Tip: Don't forget to change your clocks on all your devices, including your phone, computer, and even your car! And if you have any questions, be sure to ask your local librarian or a trusted neighbor. They're always happy to help!
