      Description

      When we set the maintenance mode message several hours before the site shutdown, the message isn't user friendly. For 12 hours, we get a "This site will be switched to maintenance mode in 719 mins 55 secs".
      We'd rather have "This site will be switched to maintenance mode in 11 hours 59 mins 55 secs".
