When To Spring Forward for Daylight Saving Time 2015
Mansfield, Storrs: Even though it doesn't feel like spring, it's almost time to move your clocks ahead an hour.
It’s always nice to have extra daylight after work or school to enjoy the evening, and we’re about to get another hour.
- Fun Fact: Though many people refer to the day clocks spring forward as the beginning of Daylight Savings Time, it’s technically Daylight Saving Time.
Daylight Saving Time officially begins Sunday, March 8.

The time change takes place at 2 a.m., but you don’t have to spring out of bed and move the big hand on your clock ahead an hour. The change is automatic for most smartphones, computers, tablets and other digital devices.
If you’re still using an analog alarm clock, you’ll probably want to move it ahead before you go to sleep on Saturday, or when you wake up the next morning.
