 > San José restricted watering hours change this Sunday
 > Despite a few impressive rain storms this winter, Caâ??s multi-year 
 > drought is still far from over, and the need to save water remains critically 
 > important. As spring approaches and daylight hours lengthen, the allowable 
 > hours for outdoor watering will change with the start of Daylight Saving Time. 
 > Watering will be allowed only before 8 a.m. and after 8 p.m., effective Sunday, 
 > March 8, 2015.
 > 
 > Here are some water rules and conservation tips to keep in mind: 
 > 1. Be cool - water when it's coolest. After Daylight Saving Time begins on 
 > March 8, outdoor watering hours are restricted to before 8 a.m. and after 8 
 > p.m.
 > 2. Be quick - fix leaks as soon as possible
 > 3. Be in control - don't let water flow into gutters or streets
 > 4. Be a sharp shooter - with automatic shut-off nozzles. Hoses are required to 
 > have a nozzle that shuts off when the handle is released
 > 5. Be a sweeper - sweep hard surfaces. Use a broom instead of a hose to clean 
 > patios, sidewalks, parking lots, or other hard surfaces
