When Do Clocks Spring Forward for Daylight Saving Time 2015?

It’s almost time to ”spring forward,” as they say.

Daylight Saving Time officially begins Sunday, March 8, 2015.

The sun will rise over the Philadelphia region at 7:24 a.m. that day, and set at 6:59 p.m. By comparison, sunset on Saturday, March 7, will be at 5:58 p.m.

The time change officially 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 have any analog clocks around the house, just move them ahead before you go to sleep on Saturday, or when you wake up the next morning.
