Daylight Savings Time starts Sunday
Submitted by paula on Fri, 03/11/2022 - 11:25pm
Daylight Saving Time (DST) starts at exactly at 2:00 a.m. this Sunday, March 13. Turn the clocks ahead one hour if you live in most of the United States.
This time of year serves as a good reminder to change the batteries in your smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. The batteries should be replaced twice a year, so an easy way to remember to change them is to do it as DST begins and ends.
While ancient civilizations adjusted daily schedules to the sun, giving more flexibility than DST, the United States didn't adopt DST like some of Europe and Canada until 1918.
