Daylight-saving time will return here at 2 p.m. this Sunday, March 13, when clocks in the four time zones of the contiguous U.S. (Eastern, Central, Mountain and Pacific, except Arizona) will jump one hour forward at 2 a.m. local time. This marks the moment each year that U.S. and Canadian clocks switch from standard (or winter) time to DST (or summer) time in 2011.
So before retiring on Saturday night, set your clocks one hour ahead.
Most of the destinations in the Western Hemisphere that observe DST will be "springing forward" on March 13. The time change also takes place in Canada's Atlantic Time Zone, as well as the Alaska Standard Time Zone. Standard time will resume at 2 p.m. on Sunday Nov. 6.
