Morning is going to come early on Sunday, March 10th, 2024.
It’s the start of Daylight Saving Time and we will all move our clocks forward by one hour. This happens at 2 a.m. on Sunday morning, but you might want to change it on Saturday night, depending on when you go to sleep.
Do you wish we didn’t change our clocks? Take the poll below. Also, scroll down several more Spring dates! š
What to do – Move clocks forward 1 hour (microwave, oven, car dashboard). Check your phone and computer and vehicle and whatever is that is supposed to automatically update. Find time change memes and share them with friends. Here are a few, and then keep reading for the poll about legislation, and the Spring dates!
When –Ā Change from 2 a.m. to 3 a.m. or forward by one hour onĀ Saturday night / Sunday morning.
Housekeeping – Many households use this time to check and replace batteriesā”in your home’s smoke detector(s).Ā
Over one-third of states in our nation have passed legislation to stop the time change routine. According to the National Conference of Legislatures, 2 states and 5 U.S. territories have enacted legislation to stay on DST. Arkansas is not one of them. Federal law currently does not allow the time change, so any law made is pending the potential change by U.S. Congress. Many other states, including Arkansas, have considered legislation to stay on Standard Time.Ā

I’ve always wondered why we can’t move 30 minutes one way or the other and leave it alone.
