President-elect Donald Trump wants to turn the lights out on daylight saving time.

Fall in Florida may not mean much weather-wise in Florida, but here's what's coming.

While some may enjoy spring forward, it’s also a reminder for students and drivers to be on alert.

This would happen if we did away with the time change

An area of high pressure near the area will keep things breezy once again across Central Florida

Winds staying breezy once again but are expected to slacken as we go into the weekend.

If we didn’t fall back in early November, the sun wouldn’t rise until after 8 a.m. during the middle of winter.

The man who originally introduced the bill, Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, reintroduced the bill to Congress last year.

Get ready to fall back.

Daylight saving time ends Nov. 5

Orange County Public Schools issued a message on safety to families concerning the start of daylight saving time.

Cooler start, but warmer afternoon than Saturday

Last March, the U.S. Senate passed what is known as the Sunshine Protection Act, which would end the twice-a-year ritual of changing clocks by making one set time permanent.

Senators Marco Rubio and Rick Scott reintroduced the Sunshine Protection Act for Congress’ consideration on Thursday, marking the fourth such effort to “lock the clock” and make daylight saving time permanent nationwide.

Don't forget to "Fall Back" tonight!

It’s that time of year. No, not the holidays, but when we set the clocks back an hour for daylight saving time.

Earlier this week, the Senate unanimously approved a measure that would make daylight saving time permanent next year.

Considering we JUST sprang forward, time wise, we had to ask: Has the time change ever ruined your day? Or even your week?

Even though winter doesn’t slip away until next weekend, time has its marching orders. And in the United States, it’s just about time to “spring” forward.

On Sunday, Floridians will have to “spring forward” yet again to keep up with the clock.

It’s that time of year again -- are you ready?

A look at how DST came to be and the historical debates that came with it.

Winter is coming. Kind of. But, for now, the only clue that the seasons are changing in Central Florida is the sunset.

The sun will set Sunday after 7:30 p.m. after moving the clocks ahead an hour for the start of daylight saving time. The sun won’t set before 7:30 p.m. until the middle of September. It will be comfortably warm and clear to celebrate the extra evening daylight with dinner on the patio. The better opportunity for rain and storms returns later in the day Thursday as a cold front approaches. Beach forecast:Beach forecastBe aware of the very high rip current threat along the east coast beaches again Sunday.

ORLANDO, Fla. – Get ready for a very warm end to winter this week, with highs soaring each day into the mid-to-upper 80s. Through the first half of the week, highs will run in the mid-to upper-80s, with temperatures nearing 90 by St. Patrick’s day on Wednesday. With it officially being spring break this week across most of Central Florida, the warmer than normal forecast will especially make the beaches look very enticing. There will be a very high rip current threat along the east coast beaches through at least Wednesday. Once the front clears, cooler weather sets up into the weekend as we officially ring in Spring at 5:37 a.m.

It’s time to adjust the clocks in the kitchen, bedroom, car and wherever else is needed, as another daylight saving time day is upon us this weekend.

Rubio and other senators have been trying to pass the federal legislation needed to allow Florida’s 2018 law to actually change the state to daylight saving time. If the bill passes it would apply to the states who currently participate in daylight saving time, which most states observe for eight months out of the year. Rubio and Scott introduced legislation last year citing the coronavirus pandemic as one reason why daylight saving time would be beneficial. The push to make daylight saving time permanent across the country does have support beyond politicians. AdDr. Daliah Wachs, a family medicine physician, says that one-hour time difference of daylight saving causes a spike in car crashes, workplace injuries, heart issues, fertility issues and depression.
