It’s that time of the year again for us all to learn how to work the clocks, again. Daylight Saving Time happens at 2:00 a.m. on the second Sunday in March, which is this weekend, March 11th.

But wait, don’t get to excited to pull out those barbecue grills, flip-flops, and plants. Well, we’ve all grilled out already during one of the warmest February months. While spring doesn’t pop up on the calendar until March 20, the first hint of it comes when Daylight Saving Time.

Microwaves and old-school clocks must be set before you head to bed Saturday night. The change is automatic for most smartphones, computers, tablets and other digital devices.

While you’re at it, test your smoke detectors. Push the test button on the smoke alarm in your home. If they do not work, replace the battery.

So mark those calender’s and prepare for the official switch to begin on Sunday, March 11.
