ST. LOUIS (KMOX) - With the change back to standard time, area fire departments suggest changing the batteries in your home's smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors.
The American Red Cross and St. Louis city firefighters are spending the weekend giving out one-thousand new smoke alarms to those in need and installing them.
Beth Elders with the Red Cross says, "You can always reach out to your local fire department. They have smoke alarms through the Red Cross and of their own. Make sure you have working smoke alarms. You can also reach out to the American Red Cross. We install free smoke alarms throughout the year, as well."
Daylight Saving Time returns on Sunday, March 10th of 2024.
