(KAIR)--The warmer temperatures bring thoughts of spring, and the approach of the new season means it's time to spring forward into Daylight Saving Time. 

Returning this weekend, it will begin at 2:00 Sunday morning.

The changing of the clocks serves as a prime reminder to make certain batteries in home smoke alarms are working properly. 

Assistant Atchison Fire Chief Ted Graf says to take time, prior to setting the clock ahead, to make sure the alarms are working properly by installing a new set of batteries.
