It’s time to “spring forward” into Daylight Saving Time (DST) again.

The time change occurs Sunday morning at 2 a.m., when the time will “spring forward” one hour to 3:00 even though spring itself follows a week later.

The principal effect — aside from losing an hour of sleep that day — is that the sun will rise and set one hour earlier than it did the day before.
Daylight saving time will last until Nov. 1.

An idea of Benjamin Franklin to push darkness back one hour, DST has been put forth as a means of conserving energy, increasing public safety and even reducing crime.
