Now it's three weeks before. Don't get me wrong, I like having the afternoon sun, but at least for awhile, it's much harder to get up in the morning because it's light later then. I always feel hungover for a couple of weeks. Want to know more about Daylight Savings? Try:

Legend:
Blue=DST observed
Orange=DST formerly observed
Red=DST never observed
