Daylight Saving Time 2025 – When Do We Spring Forward?
Hey everyone! It’s that time of year again—literally! Daylight saving time is just around the corner, and you might be wondering when exactly we need to adjust our clocks. Well, mark your calendars because on Sunday, March 9, 2025, at 2:00 AM , we’ll be springing forward by one hour. That means the clocks jump from 2:00 AM to 3:00 AM instantly, giving us longer daylight hours in the evening.

Now, while we love the idea of more sunshine after work or school, there is a small downside—we’re going to lose an hour of sleep that night. So, if you’re someone who already struggles with mornings, you might want to go to bed a little earlier that Saturday night! The good news? The sun will start setting after 7:00 PM , which means more daylight to enjoy outdoor activities, evening walks, or just feeling like the day doesn’t end so early.
But have you ever wondered why we do this? The idea of daylight saving time dates back to 1918 , originally introduced in the U.S. as a way to conserve fuel during World War I . Many people believe it was created for farmers, but ironically, they were actually against it because it disrupted their natural schedules. Over the years, the policy has changed, but today, most of North America follows daylight saving time— except for places like Arizona and Hawaii , which opt out entirely.
Of course, thanks to technology, most of our phones, computers, and smart devices will automatically update the time. But don’t forget about your microwaves, car clocks, and wall clocks —those still need a manual adjustment!
So, as we get ready to "spring forward," just remember: Yes, we lose an hour of sleep, but we gain extra sunlight in the evenings! Set your reminders, enjoy the brighter days ahead, and maybe grab an extra cup of coffee on March 10th.
