Spring forward

It’s time to move clocks forward early Sunday morning, March 12, as daylight saving time starts.

Standard time ends and daylight saving time begins at 2 a.m. local time, meaning that people need to set their clocks and watches ahead one hour.

“Lose an hour sleep. Sun comes up later, but sets later, too,” the National Weather Service office in Elko said in a Facebook reminder.

Daylight saving time ends Nov. 5.
