Questions

When do the clocks go forward?

In the US and Canada, the clocks go forward one hour on Sunday, March 14, 2027 at 2:00 AM local time. In the UK and Europe they go forward on Sunday, March 28, 2027.

Do I lose an hour of sleep?

Yes. At 2:00 AM the clock jumps straight to 3:00 AM, so that night is only 23 hours long.

Will my phone change by itself?

Yes. Phones, computers and most smart devices change automatically. Older clocks, ovens, microwaves and car clocks usually need to be changed by hand.

Which places don't change their clocks?

In the US, Arizona (except the Navajo Nation) and Hawaii stay on standard time. Most of Asia, Africa and South America, and all of Mexico except a few border cities, don't use daylight saving time.

Is it "spring forward" or "fall back"?

Spring forward, fall back: in spring the clocks go forward an hour, and in fall they go back an hour.
