Health Considerations for Idaho Residents

Medical research has revealed important health impacts of time changes in Idaho. The spring forward transition is associated with a 10% increase in heart attacks during the first three days after the change. Car accidents also spike by approximately 8% on the Monday following the spring time change.

Health Tip: Gradually adjust your sleep schedule by going to bed 15 minutes earlier each night for four days before the spring time change.

Energy Consumption Patterns in Idaho

Recent studies on energy consumption during DST in Idaho show modest savings of approximately 0.3% in electricity usage. However, these savings are offset by increased gasoline consumption as people take advantage of extended daylight for travel and recreation. The net energy impact remains a subject of ongoing research and debate among policy makers.
