Daylight Saving Time begins this weekend, effective at 2 a.m. local time Sunday for most of the United States.
Don’t forget to set your clocks an hour ahead, which most people do before bed Saturday night, to avoid being late for Sunday morning activities.
No time change is observed in Hawaii, most of Arizona, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, American Samoa, Guam and the Northern Marianas.
Standard time returns Nov. 6.
A poll in 2019 by The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research found that 7 in 10 Americans preferred not to switch back and forth to mark daylight saving time. A follow-up poll in 2021 found that most Americans wanted to skip the ritual of changing their clocks twice a year, but there was no agreement on which time clocks ought to follow.
