The good news: Sunday’s clock change may make it feel like we’re one step closer to spring. The bad news: You will be losing a hour of sleep. Daylight Savings Time is headed our way this weekend, and the clocks skip ahead an hour Sunday at 2 a.m, which means the time will jump from 1:59 a.m. straight to 3:00 a.m.
Each year we lose an hour of sleep on the second Sunday in March, and get it back the first Sunday in November when the clocks are set back an hour.
