Get Ready To Spring Forward: Here's When Daylight Saving Time Begins

The Daily Voice ^ | 03/06/2025 | Joe Lombardi

[BenLurkin]

Government once again reminds the people who is really boss by requiring them to do a senseless act twice a year.

[Bon of Babble]

It will be a very happy day when this is eliminated.

I’m for keeping standard time.

[Fresh Wind]

You don’t “save” any daylight.

[HartleyMBaldwin]

In before the I-want-DST-year-round comments. I like year-round standard time just fine here in Arizona.

[stevio]

You good with the sun coming up at 4:30am in the summer, or 8:30am in the winter?

[discostu]

As a sports fan I do like when the rest of the world shifts. Pacific Time is the best sports schedule, games over by 9.

[Red Badger]

In Florida it doesn’t make much sense to save any daylight..................

[Fresh Wind]

In before the I-want-DST-year-round comments.

They tried that during the "energy crisis" in 1973 when Jimmy Crapper was president. Many people hated it and it was abandoned in 1974. One of the big gripes was that kids had to go to skool when it was still dark.

[HartleyMBaldwin]

I don’t watch sports very much, but I never saw the need to switch time back and forth even before I moved to AZ. In any case, the decision of DST or not should be left to the individual states.

[Jonty30]

You mean the milking adjust time, MAD.

[JZelle]

Why can’t these clowns end this instead of talking about it? What’s the hold up? Did one of the Judge Amys threaten to block the order?

[deport]

Ole country folks didn't need to fake the clock time. They
just arose as the sun began to peak out in the morning sky.
Time to get up and start the daily routine.

[HartleyMBaldwin]

In Florida it doesn’t make much sense to save any daylight..................

In Arizona even less. During the summer, the sooner the sun goes down the better. I'm usually up before the sun anyway, summer or winter.

[Fresh Wind]

Sorry, my mistake, Tricky Dick was president in 1973.

[GSWarrior]

Somebody has already set the clock back to winter in NorCal.

[Joe 6-pack]

Government just trying to increase risks of skin cancer

[Wuli]

There was NEVER any need to change any clocks. All the adjustment needed was, if anyone wanted, is and was to change schedules, not the clocks.

You think on March 9 you should get up at 9 am instead of 8 am, fine, do it, and as many as want to do the same, in your town, city, business, county, state, industry, that’s fine. But no one ever NEEDED to change the clocks.

[dfwgator]

My cat has no concept of Daylight Savings Time.

[Allegra]

I’m for keeping standard time.

Same.

Noon is when the sun is directly overhead.

Or should be, anyway.
