Daylight Saving Time – Set your clocks back one hour Sunday!

It’s that time of year again” Fall Back”. Don’t forget that at 2 a.m. on Sunday, November 04, it’s time to set your clocks back one hour for Daylight Saving Time – you’ll gain one hour of precious sleep!

Daylight Savings Time originated in 1784 and Benjamin Franklin is credited with the idea – he thought that by changing the time to allow for more sunlight, citizens would save money on candles. However, Daylight Savings Time wasn’t actually implemented until many years later in 1916, when Germany and Britian brought it in as a way of conserving energy during World War I.

Happy Daylight Savings!
