Default Daylight Saving Tonight

Just a reminder for those heading out on opening day tomorrow, daylight savings time is tonight, therefore sunrise and sunset will be one hour earlier than today. Plan your alarm accordingly.

Red Deer Sunrise today: 8:30
Red Deer Sunrise tomorrow: 7:32

I’d rather it stay daylight savings (which is being discussed) it’s better for everyone imho to have sunlight later in the day during the winter.

Daylight savings time and changing clocks twice a year ..............

serves absolute no purpose, add zero value to our lives, and presents one silly, traditional thing to remember to do which screws up people's sleep patterns, makes them early (or late) for work, etc...

This useless exercise needs to be eliminated.
