Health Considerations for Wyoming Residents
Medical research has revealed important health impacts of time changes in Wyoming. The spring forward transition is associated with a 5% increase in heart attacks during the first three days after the change. Car accidents also spike by approximately 7% on the Monday following the spring time change.
Energy Consumption Patterns in Wyoming
Recent studies on energy consumption during DST in Wyoming show modest savings of approximately 0.5% 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.
Preparation Tips
✓ Take advantage of the 'extra' hour in fall to catch up on sleep or tackle a project.
✓ Set your clocks before going to bed to avoid confusion in the morning.
✓ Use the extra evening daylight in summer for outdoor activities and vitamin D.
✓ Update your car clock, microwave, and other manual clocks that don't auto-update.
