Daylight Savings and Fire safety in hand

Daylight Savings and Fire safety in hand. Clocks will be springing forward this weekend for the switch to Daylight Savings Time, but it also serves as a good time to make sure your home fire warning system is working properly.

The Bay Area Sunrise Rotary Club's Fire Prevention Project would like everyone to take the opportunity to check and test their smoke detectors this weekend, and replace them if necessary.




Working smoke detectors can be the difference between life and death in a fire emergency.

As for springing forward with your clock, Daylight Savings arrives at 2:00 a.m. on Sunday, March 13, jumping ahead to become 3:00 a.m.

You can always make the switch before you go to bed on Saturday night, for example switching your clock from 11:00 p.m. to midnight.
