Published on: 2025-07-12 23:00:07
Get ready to smack the snooze button on your alarm clock with extra vigor. Daylight saving time is coming to most of the US on March 9. Most Americans will set their clocks forward one hour before they go to sleep, though the official chance happens at 2 a.m.
The "spring forward" time change is notorious for disrupting sleep patterns and schedules. Some politicians are pushing to abolish time changes, but DST is coming in 2025, whether we like it or not.
When does daylight saving time start and end?
Daylight saving time in the US starts at 2 a.m. local time on Sunday, March 9 and runs until 2 a.m. local time on Nov. 2. The time changes always happen on a Sunday. The start of DST comes with the cute motto of "spring forward" thanks to the season and having to set your clocks an hour ahead.
