Daylight Savings Time begins March 13
Be sure to set your clocks ahead 1 hour on Sunday
March 13, 2016
On Sunday, March 13, 2016 at 2:00 a.m., the clocks "spring forward" for Daylight Saving Time in the USA and it lasts until 2:00 a.m. Sunday, November 6, 2016. The time change always starts on the second Sunday in March each year and the clocks should be set to 3:00 a.m. once 2:00 a.m. rolls around (technically Saturday night). Cell phones and electronics should automatically reset. Any other clocks will have to be manually set. With the clocks being moved forward, this means that many will lose an hour of sleep. There are several states and areas that do not follow Daylight Saving Time and those include Arizona, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, American Samoa, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, and the US Virgin Islands. The state of Arizona (except for the Navajo Nation in the northern part of Arizona), unlike most of the rest of the United States, doesn’t observe Daylight Savings Time, and hasn’t for about 40 years.
