Dont' forget that Daylight Savings Time started this morning at 2am for mostly everyone in the US except half of Indiana, all of Arizona, and all of Hawaii. You will need to set your board time one time zone ahead for the board clock to be correct.

Folks you have to go to your profile and make the change there:

GMT -4 for Eastern time

-5 for Central time

-6 for Mountain time

-7 for Pacific time

To be honest I forgot that was today, until I realized my computer clock seemed fast (it updates itself). Then I remembered; and I said some naughty words I can't repeat here :lol: as I went and fast forwarded the rest of my clocks.

That's fine, sucks that the board doesn't change it for you. But thanks for doing that for me :) .

I think all of Indiana went to Daylight Savings Time this year. Could someone confirm that? I saw an article online, where a HS teenager offered to reset clocks for anyone who needed them, for something like $10 a household. I hope he makes some serious money doing that!

Thanks Jeremy.

Can someone tell me if I live in the Ohio Valley/Cincinnati, what time do I want to set my profile to?

All of Indiana is now on day light savings time...expect for 13 or so counties....these counties are mostly in the northwest corner and southwest corner (in the pointy part of the state.)

No, starting this year, ALL of Indiana is on DST. Every single county in the state changes their clocks now.

(never mind, i r dumn.)

I have a map on my desk showing that there are 7 counties around lake Michigan that are central and 12 counties down in the south west part of the state that are central as well.

Apologies, I thought you were referring to a couple of holdout counties that were in the Eastern time zone that used to not do the DST thing.

No problem HurryKane. I work a help desk, and we got swamped by our Indiana stores today because their time clocks were not correct.
