It’s national “remember that some clocks aren’t connected to the internet and don’t automatically update” day.
I suspect the lessened big deal being made about this is due to the fact that people’s primacy clock is now a cell phone which handles the transition itself, instead of a watch that needs your help.
None of the clocks in my house update automatically.
clocks in the microwave, coffee pot, Stove, and two digital clocks in the bedrooms. My radio/cd player in my vehicle will need changing too. Quite a list
Doesn’t take long. Maybe 10 mins. I have to reset all the clocks anytime the power goes out. So I get plenty of practice.
I was thinking about the fact that on my local news, the weather person was the one reminding us about changing our clocks. That seems a bit odd to me, but it’s been like that as long as I can remember.
It used to be the clock changes were almost 6 mos apart; now it’s close to four & eight months. I wonder if the fire chiefs didn’t like moving the change date further away from halfway thru the year.
Hawaii doesn’t change, so they’ll now be six hours behind East Coast; it’s sux when you need to call there for work. You can’t call until mid-afternoon & if you get wrapped up in something, it’s time to go before you get to call them.
For the first time since I can remember knowing about the time change, I heard nothing at all about it. It wasn’t until I woke up this morning that I realized things were different.
I live in Arizona, where we don’t observe DST. Sure enough, my cell phone had jumped one hour ahead. I had neglected to make sure the automatic DST adjustment was turned off.
