Daylight Saving Time Change: Set Clocks Forward This Weekend

SF, CA - For folks in the US, it is time to join most people across the country in setting their clocks forward one hour this weekend.

Officially the change to daylight saving time should be made at 2 a.m. Sunday, local time, though many folks would have reset their clocks and watches before going to bed.

The shift also serves as a reminder to install new batteries in warning devices like smoke detectors and hazard warning radios.

In areas that observe daylight time, standard time will return on Nov. 2, 2008.

Some parts of US don’t observe daylight savings time. Those include Arizona, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, American Samoa, Guam and the Northern Marianas.
