Spring ahead: 2014 Daylight Saving Time means time to turn the clocks forward.

The warm weather across the Tampa Bay area is a sure reminder that the Spring is right around the corner. Along with nice weather, it's also time for longer days.

Daylight Saving Time is quickly coming for 2014.

Since 2007, Daylight Saving Time, or DST for short, begins on the second Sunday in March and ends on the first Sunday in November.

For 2014, that means it is time to 'spring ahead' this weekend.

This Saturday night, Tampa Bay area residents need to change their clocks. March 9 is the second Sunday in March this year, so at 2:00 Sunday morning, you will turn your clocks ahead one hour, marking the return to Daylight Saving Time.

Here we go again.

....But at least we will have longer daylight for early evenings.

Today will be the last day to use “EST” for talkradio show threads.

Don’t forget . . . Spring back . . . and Fall forward.

[Yosemitest]

This is one of the stupidest things we've ever done.
Do away with it.
It cost more money than it saves.

[Carriage Hill]

It’s a trade-off for longer evenings, that’s for sure.

I hate getting up in the dark, after so many years of getting up at 3am, on the Farm. Getting out of that habit is tough.

Im hoping to put the use of STANDARD TIME...ONLY on the California ballot!

Can’t understand why we still do this. Energy savings are negligible, it only causes aggregation and car accidents

[Carriage Hill]

LOL! That’s gonna mess-up a lot of people.

[Carriage Hill]

It is dumb. Anytime the gov’t gets involved in mandating something, it’s a guaranteed fail.

[Yosemitest]

I hope you win.
Arizona don't put up with that bull$hit !

[laweeks]

LOL! That’s gonna mess-up a lot of people.

I used to teach adults in a vocational school, and I'd always say that just before the weekend break (Spring back and Fall forward), and invariably I'd get one or two students who'd get all screwed up.

Don’t forget . . . Spring back . . . and Fall forward.

Isn't it Spring ahead and Fall forward? I'm all in for continuously advancing the clock 1 hour each Fall and Spring until we loop around. It will be a 12 year cycle.

[Gay State Conservative]

But it only applies to 55 states.Arizona and Hawaii don't change.

Can’t understand why we still do this.

As always, follow the money.

Look who the big lobbyists were for the last extension of it (and the one before that).

Take a guess, before you read that.

Were you correct?

[don-o]

At least is right.

I demand a 13th month so I can get another Soc Sec check.

[12th_Monkey]

I HATE SPRINGING FORWARD!!!!

[Yosemitest]

That explains it pretty accurately.

[Ivan Mazepa]

Sorry, autocorrect- aggravation, not aggregation :)
