LAKE COUNTY, Calif. — With spring just weeks away, it’s time to change the clocks.

Daylight Saving Time begins at 2 a.m. Sunday, March 9.

At that time, California will go from Pacific Standard Time to Pacific Daylight Time when clocks “spring forward” by one hour.

Daylight Saving Time will continue until Nov. 2.

Officials encourage people to use the time change as a reminder to complete important tasks, like changing batteries in smoke and carbon monoxide detectors as well as in NOAA weather radios.
