Time Change 2024: Spring Forward Tonight! Michigan Clocks Move Forward 1 Hour at 2 A.M.

Get ready for more sun! Daylight saving time starts March 10. Adjust your clocks and get ready to spring forward!

Are you ready for more sunlight? Daylight saving time is just around the corner, so get ready to adjust your clocks and lose an hour of sleep overnight. Daylight saving time will begin at 2 a.m. on March 10, 2024, the second Sunday of March. While the mornings may stay dark a bit longer, the evenings will be brighter with an extra hour of daylight.

Thanks to modern technology, your smartphones and watches will automatically adjust to the time change. However, if you have analog clocks or appliances that display the time, you'll need to manually adjust them. It's important to know that the correct term is daylight "saving" time, not "savings" time, as commonly mispronounced.

Daylight saving time occurs between March and November when most Americans adjust their clocks by one hour. This allows for more daylight in the evenings during the spring and summer months. While some states, like Arizona and Hawaii, do not participate in daylight saving time due to their geographical location, most states in the U.S. follow this practice.

There has been a push to make daylight saving time permanent, as studies have shown that the biannual time changes can have negative effects on physical health. However, legislation to make this change permanent has not yet been passed. It's important to be aware of the impact of daylight saving time on your body and to adjust accordingly.

So, get ready to spring forward and enjoy the longer days ahead. Don't forget to adjust your clocks and make the most of the extra hour of daylight in the evenings. And remember, it's daylight "saving" time, not "savings" time. Let's embrace the changing seasons and make the most of the sunlight that lies ahead.
