Spring Forward
March 9th
When does daylight saving time start in 2025? This year, daylight saving time begins Sunday, March 9, with clocks rolling forward one hour at 2 a.m. With the change, it will stay lighter later in the evening across the United States.
Daylight Saving Time always begins the second Sunday in March and ends the first Sunday in November.
In the parts of the U.S. that practice it, Daylight Saving Time starts on the second Sunday in March. Clocks will move forward by one hour on March 9. At 2 a.m. local time that day, the time will jump to 3 a.m.
An hour of sunlight is shifted from the morning to the evening when Daylight Saving Time begins in the spring. The goal of the practice is to allow people to benefit from daylight during months with generally warmer temperatures.
The clocks go back one hour at two in the morning on the first Sunday in November. This implies that during months with generally colder temperatures, the sun will seem to rise and set a bit earlier.
