Daylight Saving Time

Waking up groggy is no fun, so many brands are serving up discounts to give us all a caffeine boost or a dose of sugar to start the day.

Which U.S. states want to adopt permanent daylight saving time, and which want to go in the other direction?

After approximately four months of observing standard time, clocks will spring forward overnight as the observance of daylight saving time begins in much of the United States.

Clocks will move forward an hour, and the sun will start to set later. But how did this idea start?

Sunset and sunrise times are about to change this weekend as most states across the U.S. change the clocks and “spring forward” for the return of daylight saving time.

There are ways to ease the adjustment, including getting more sunshine to help reset your circadian rhythm for healthful sleep.

This weekend, as daylight saving time starts back up again and we ‘spring forward,’ an hour of sleep will vanish.

The calendar has turned to March, and that means daylight saving time is right around the corner for most of the United States.

Daylight saving time in 2025 begins Sunday but as debate over its impact continues, could this be one of the last years we change the clocks?

Soon, Illinois will officially “spring forward” from standard time to daylight saving time, marking the first of two clock changes set for 2025.

The final month of meteorological winter comes to a close next week and soon after it will be time to trade an hour of sleep for more evening daylight.  

The vast majority of the U.S. will turn their clocks forward in a matter of weeks. Most Americans will lose an hour of sleep, but will gain an extra hour of sunlight when daylight saving time begins starting on Sunday, March 9.

The final month of meteorological winter is now underway, and though plenty of cold days remain ahead, those looking forward to the summer may be wondering when clocks will “spring forward” for daylight saving time.

Chicago-area residents dreaming of warmer days ahead will be happy to know the region will hit a key sunset milestone this week.

While it’s still over a month until the start of daylight saving time, those yearning for longer days will at least see a major milestone in the Chicago area this week.

While Chicago-area residents may be consumed with what has been a mostly bitter cold January, days are slowly getting longer as the start of daylight saving time nears.

While a bitter cold January in Chicago continues, you may have noticed a bit more daylight sneaking into your windows, with earlier sunrises and later sunsets, even if just by a minute. You know what that means — the time to “spring forward” is coming up.

Could putting a permanent end to daylight saving time impact how early or late Chicago sunrises are? NBC 5 Meteorologist Kevin Jeanes explains.

Just over a month after clocks “fell back” to standard time upon the ending of daylight saving time across much of the United States, President-elect Donald Trump proposed ending the practice of springing forward and falling back.

As many in the Chicago area felt their first blast of cold weather this week, it will start to feel much more like the seasons ahead as daylight saving time officially comes to an end overnight.
