When Do We Spring Ahead?

Daylight Saving is this Sunday, March 11.

You know the old saying "Fall back, spring forward." Well, it's almost time to spring forward. 

We have received a reader question on the date for Daylight Saving so we thought we'd put up the reminder early this year. This year we move the clocks overnight on Sunday, March 11. Don't forget to move your clocks ahead one hour before going to bed Saturday night (Don't worry, we'll remind you again). Officially Daylight Saving is 2 a.m. on Sunday.

Yes, moving the clocks ahead does mean we all lose an hour of sleep, but in return it will be light later in the day. Besides, the lost hour falls on Saturday night, so just sleep in a bit on Sunday before getting up and starting the day with your Patch Newsletter.
