Get ready to reset your clocks and lose an hour of sleep — daylight saving time is coming around again this Sunday.
Get ready to reset your clocks and lose an hour of sleep — daylight saving time is upon us.
Clocks will spring forward an hour at 2 a.m. Sunday, meaning one less hour of sleep for most people across the U.S.
The change also means one more hour of sunlight in the evening. In Boston, this will bump sunrise back to just after 7 a.m. and sunset to about 6:45 p.m. Daylight saving time lasts from the second Sunday of March to the first Sunday of November, just under eight months.
With the promise of another round of jarred sleeping schedules and clock confusion, biannual debates on the subject are again kicking into high gear.
Despite heavy debate on the practice, about 40% of countries worldwide — including much of Europe and parts of Canada and Australia — opt to participate in what Americans call daylight savings time.
