MYRTLE BEACH, SC (WBTW) – It’s that time of the year again!
Daylight saving time begins Sunday at 2 a.m.
Don’t forget to turn your clocks ahead an hour either Saturday night or early Sunday morning.
Many say this is also a good time to check the batteries in your smoke and carbon monoxide alarms.
The South Carolina General Assembly has voted in favor of a bill that would make DST the state’s standard time. It was signed by Governor McMaster on Feb. 3, 2020.
