Daylight Saving Time Begins Sunday

Daylight Saving Time begins on Sunday, March 12, 2023, at 2a. On Saturday night, set your clocks forward one hour (i.e., losing one hour) to “spring ahead.”

Daylight Saving Time, observed on March 12 this year, is the practice of advancing the clocks by one hour from Standard Time during the summer months and reverting the clocks to Standard Time in the autumn. The fundamental concept is that doing so will help us all to create better use of natural daylight: putting the clocks forward one hour in the spring will give us more daylight during summer nights while changing the clocks back one hour in the fall would give us more daylight during winter mornings.

Sunrise and sunset will be about 1 hour later on Mar 12 than the day before.
