Remember to Change Your Clocks Tonight
Remember to change your clocks back an hour tonight: a majority of Hoosiers will gain an hour when daylight savings time ends at 2 a.m. Sunday morning.
A Milwaukee man has an idea about what to do with the hour you’ll gain this weekend when daylight saving time ends.
L. Maxwell McKissick says it’s a great excuse to donate 60 minutes of volunteer work to a local charity. He says if every American pitched in, communities and nonprofits would get 300 million-plus hours of assistance.
Federal law specifies that daylight saving time applies from the second Sunday in March until the first Sunday of November in areas that don’t exempt themselves.
That means most Americans lose an hour when they spring forward in March, and gain it back eight months later.
