Don't forget to 'Spring Forward' this weekend

CONROE, Texas -- Daylight savings time begins this Sunday morning, March 10, at 2 a.m. Don't forget to set your clocks ahead one hour before you go to sleep Saturday night.

A great way to remember whether you gain or lose an hour each cycle, is to repeat this phrase...spring forward, fall back.

Daylight Saving Time solves our day to night ratio in relation to the equator. If you live closer to the equator you have even day and night, but the further away from the equator you live the longer period of daylight in the summer. Thus by 'changing' time we take an hour of daylight from the morning and gain it in the evening.

Conceived by Benjamin Franklin, the idea for daylight saving will ensure an extra hour of outdoor fun for all throughout the seasons of spring, summer, and fall.
