π About Daylight Saving Time (Spring) 2027
Daylight Saving Time begins in spring when clocks are set forward one hour at 2:00 a.m. on the second Sunday of March, shifting an hour of daylight from the morning to the evening. The practice was first adopted in the United States during World War I in 1918 as an energy-conservation measure, repealed after the war, and reintroduced during World War II before becoming standardized under the Uniform Time Act of 1966. Not all U.S. states participate: Arizona and Hawaii remain on standard time year-round. The spring transition is often associated with a temporary increase in sleep deprivation, and studies have documented a small but measurable rise in heart attacks and traffic accidents in the days immediately following the change, fueling ongoing legislative debates about making daylight saving time permanent.
