You Ask...Patch Answers: When Do We Change the Clocks for Daylight Saving 2013?

When do we "spring forward"?

 

You know the old saying, "Fall back, spring forward." Well, it's almost time to spring forward.

This year we move the clocks ahead one hour on Sunday, March 10. Don't forget to fix your clocks before going to bed Saturday night, unless you're planning on being awake and alert at 2 a.m. when the time officially changes.

Yes, moving the clocks ahead does mean we all lose an hour of sleep, but in return it will be light later in the day. And you can always just sleep in a bit on Sunday before getting up to start the day with your Patch newsletter.

I just joined to receive the Patch newsletter via email. I don't know if there is a fee? Can you tell me what the deal is?
Thanks,
