Can't wait til it starts getting dark around 4pm.

The afternoon Daylight Saving Time advantage is offset for many people and businesses by the morning's need for more lighting. In spring and fall, the advantage is generally less than one hour. So, the rationale was that Daylight Saving Time saves energy for lighting in all seasons of the year, but it saves least during the four darkest months of winter (November, December, January, and February), when the afternoon advantage is offset by the need for lighting because of late sunrise.

These new-fangled internet clocks are self-setting.

While my phone would automatically reset, I appreciate seeing this reminder to reset my mental faculties.

Have an up vote!

I don’t mind it much, except getting up at 2 am to set the clocks is ridiculous. They should make it effective at a more reasonable hour.

My phone already fell back. I'll just let it fix itself tonight.

Thanks momma lol



Momma called me from Arkansas to tell me to set my clock back. I'm 34 lol. I think mother's have like a pre built natural instinct to tell their kids this

I’d be happy if this nutty practice would cease. Just pick one or the other, make it standard time, and then leave it all the heck alone

I set all my clocks the wrong way, I thought it was 10 just now until I looked at my phone.

I'm just glad that when people write a time as "CST" they'll actually be correct for 4 months.
