Will our electronic devices not switch time automatically if we are not taking part in the time change? Or will they switch and we will need to change it back?
It's almost time to fall back! ⏰ Most of the U.S. will turn clocks back one hour when daylight saving time ends on Sunday, November 1. But much of western Canada, including British Columbia and Alberta, won't be falling back after adopting laws to stay on permanent daylight saving time year-round. This will create some interesting time differences across the U.S.-Canada border. Swipe to see how time zones across the U.S. and Canada will change!

I’m figuring on a $30/ac increase in production costs on my farm for next years crop if values stay where they’re at I guess I’ll just increase what I charge for my products like everyone else doesβ€¦πŸ˜‰ But in all seriousness take the time to know your break evens on every crop!

I disagree…. The only reason the local construction industry is even doing anything right now is because of SM. Zero housing and zero industrial construction happening in our area right now. Dairy and poultry building like crazy right!
The entire Cdn economy would be thrown under the bus if it meant protecting Dairy Supply Management. Amazing how much power this lobby group has over every political party in the country. Banking. Telecom. Dairy.

IMO…. We are going to get double winter this year because we had no winter last year. My 2 cents …
With the NE Pacific now beginning to warm up as well, all bets are off for the upcoming Fall/Winter/Spring patterns for the West Coast. This El Nino is way too strong to have any chance of knowing exactly what the next 7 months of weather will give us. Take anything you see on here and on TikTok with a massive grain of salt right now. No one really knows anything yet. 2015-2016 was supposed to be a wet winter for CA, and the majority of the storms targetted us up here. That was our last Super El Nino... πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ
