Daylight Saving Time Begins March 10, Marking the Start of Longer Evenings

The annual 'spring forward' event will see clocks adjusted an hour ahead, extending daylight in the evenings but leading to darker mornings.

Daylight Saving Time (DST) officially starts on March 10, 2024, at 2 a.m., when clocks will be set forward by one hour.
The formal name is Daylight Saving Time, though 'Daylight Savings Time' is commonly used in the United States, Canada, and Australia.
A 2020 poll found that 63% of Americans favor ending the practice of changing clocks seasonally, citing disruptions to sleep schedules and other health concerns.
The U.S. Senate passed the Sunshine Protection Act of 2021, aiming for permanent DST, but it has stalled in the House of Representatives.
Florida lawmakers have pushed for the Sunshine Protection Act, which would make DST permanent nationwide, but federal approval is required for such a change.
