Daylight Saving Time Begins Sunday

You'll lose an hour of sleep tonight, but gain early evening daylight for the next six months.

It's clock-changing time, folks. Daylight Saving Time is just about here.

You should set your clocks forward an hour before going to bed tonight. The actual time changes at 2 a.m. Sunday.

Yes, you'll lose an hour of sleep, but you'll get an extra hour of daylight at the end of the day, and it all means Spring is on its way.
