Blount County Courthouse clock got ahead of time change

Blount County was a little bit ahead in when it began falling back. Drivers along West Broadway or Lamar Alexander Parkway over the last week may have done a double take if they looked at the clock atop the Blount County Courthouse that has been running an hour early the last few days. That will take care of itself on Sunday when Daylight Savings Time comes to an end and everyone else’s clocks fall back one hour. The four clock faces atop the courthouse were upgraded to computer automation in 2000 and that system came pre-programmed with the changes for Daylight Savings Time. Those dates however were the DST settings adjusted by Congress in 1987 that used the first Sunday in April and last Sunday in October. The Energy Policy Act of 2005 expanded DST pushed the start date forward to the second Sunday in March and extended the end date back to the first Sunday in November. The difference often requires the courthouse staff to make corrections to compensate for the out-of-date automated changes. “When we reset the time whenever we spring forward or, we will fall back first, so we’ll set it back an hour, and then a
