(CENTRALIA, WA) – This Sunday we “spring ahead” to Daylight
Saving Time.
When you change the time on your clocks, local fire
departments urge you to remember to change the batteries in the smoke detectors
in your home.
Laura Hanson with Lewis County Fire District 5 says statistics
show you have a 50-percent greater chance of surviving a home fire with a
working smoke detector. Fire officials also recommend that you replace smoke
detectors if they are ten years old or older.
