This Sunday, March 11, at 2:00 a.m., we’ll turn our clocks ahead one hour. Most of the United States will spring forward Sunday, except for Hawaii and Arizona, which opted out of daylight saving time.
Daylight saving time was first introduced over a century ago in order to conserve energy and save money. However, there is not much evidence that this practice helps conserve energy or money.
Nowadays, no effort is required in changing clocks as in the U.S. smartphones, computers and digital clocks all “spring forward” on their own. However, manual updating is required for analog watches, microwaves and other appliances.
