This weekend, Daylight Saving Time begins. We will "spring forward" and lose an hour of sleep with the goal of shifting more daylight into the evening. Some politicians support adopting year-round Daylight Saving Time. Today we'll hear from Meteorologist Andrew Buck Michael about the Sunshine Protection Act that would make Daylight Saving Time permanent. We'll also talk to sleep expert, Dr. Chris Depner about how the semi-annual clock changes disrupt our natural Circadian Rhythms.
