Tonight's The Night! Change Your Batteries As You Change Your Clocks

Just a friendly reminder that at 2:00 AM, Sunday March 13, we "spring forward" an hour into Daylight Saving Time.
As you set your clocks forward tonight, take a moment to switch out the batteries in your smoke alarms. Then, test them to make sure that they're functioning properly.
Taking a few minutes tonight to do so, could make a world of difference in the event of a house fire. It's also a good time to review fire escape plans with your family. An ounce of prevention is certainly worth a pound of cure!
