Daylight Saving Time Begins This Sunday

Daylight Saving Time (DST) begins Sunday, March 12 at 2:00 a.m. when clocks are turned forward 1 hour. Although DST has been used in the United States for about 100 years, the idea was conceived many years before. According to the “History of Daylight Saving Time (www.timeanddate.com) “ancient civilizations are known to have engaged in a practice similar to modern DST where they would adjust their daily schedules to the Sun’s schedule.”
