good morning. Big temp change here from yesterday. When I walked the dogs this morning it was 40! yesterday about 8. Nice & balmy
Did you catch this? DST moved up three weeks to the second Sunday in March?! Can't say I mind particularly, but it sure will be dark in the morning. On March 10, civil twilight will begin at 7:25 DST and the sun won't rise until nearly 8am (7:52).
Should make sleeping late a bit easier, sans window treatments. ;)
This is the note received: Starting in the spring of 2007, daylight saving time
(DST) start and end dates for the United States will transition to comply with the Energy Policy Act of
2005. DST dates in the United States will start three weeks earlier (2:00 A.M. on the second Sunday in
March) and will end one week later (2:00 A.M. on the first Sunday in November).
(New DST start date: March 11, 2007
DST end date: Nov 4, 2007)
All desktops/laptops need to be patched to comply with this new Energy Policy (otherwise, your computer won't know about the change)
Please consult your OS or PC manufacturer's web site for further information.
