Just a little trivia fact.
Before WWII Michigan was in the central time zone.
During WWII Michigan changed to the same time zone as New York and other eastern states since we manufactured a lot of tanks and other items for the war.
That time change was meant to be temporary but we never changed back.
So we went on daylight savings time in 1942 year round. Now when we set our clock forward we are on double daylight saving time.
