Daylight saving time begins on March 8. Set your clocks ahead one hour at bedtime on March 7.

Daylight saving time returns Sunday, March 8, at 2 a.m.

In areas where the change is observed, clocks should be set ahead one hour.

Standard time will resume Sunday, Nov. 1, at 2 a.m., when clocks are set back one hour.  

Daylight saving time is an effort to extend daylight hours during conventional waking time in the summer months so that darkness falls at a later clock time.
