Turn the clocks forward: Daylight Saving Time is back

MEDICINE HAT, AB – It’s that time again to turn the clocks forward.

Daylight Saving Time is the practice of moving the clocks forward one hour from Standard Time during the summer months and changing them back again in the fall.

The general idea is that this allows us all to use natural daylight better: moving the clocks forward one hour in the spring grants us more daylight during summer evenings, while moving clocks back one hour in the fall grants us more daylight during winter mornings.

“Following the mantra of spring ahead, fall back, you will gain an extra hour tomorrow night, of which will make you feel weird for about a week,” CHAT News anchor Dan Reynish said.
