Clock Change Dates in 2012 and beyond

Set your clocks backwards one hour, starting at 2:00 AM, on the first Sunday  in November.

Daylight Saving Time Will End November 4, 2012. 

Daylight Saving Time dates change from year to year, but it always begins on the second Sunday of March, and ends on the first Sunday of November.  The clock moves forward one hour in March, and back one hour in November.

Remember, “spring forward” and “fall back.”

The future of the clock change…
2013: Sunday, March 10, 2013, and ends Sunday, November 03, 2013
2014: Sunday, March 09, 2013, and ends Sunday, November 02, 2014

2016: Sunday, March 13, 2015, and ends Sunday, November 06, 2016

HISTORY: The Uniform Time Act That Started Daylight Savings Time (DST)

As a nation, we began setting our clocks forward and back when DST officially started in 1966. The Uniform Time Act did not require all  states to go along with the new legislation, but over time almost every state  fell in line. The states of Arizona and Hawaii are the only states that do not  currently participate in the twice-yearly time change. The US Territories of  Puerto Rico, Guam, American Samoa and the Virgin Islands also do not change  their clocks for Daylight Savings Time.
