Remember to set your clocks a hour forward this Saturday night!
Daylight Saving Time begins on Sunday, March 8, 2026, at 2:00 A.M., when clocks will “spring forward” one hour to Daylight Saving Time. Most people will set their clocks forward before going to bed on Saturday night, March 7, so they wake up at the correct time Sunday morning. . . but WHY?? 🕑️
Many Americans feel that changing clocks is outdated. In recent years, public frustration has fueled political momentum to make either DST or Standard Time permanent. While Congress has not yet passed legislation for permanent DST, states are taking matters into their own hands, and 29 states are actively pursuing some form of permanent time change.
In the U.S., there are some exceptions to DST that already exist: Arizona (except for the Navajo Nation), Hawaii, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Northern Mariana Islands, Guam, and American Samoa.
