What is daylight saving time?
The National Institute of Standards and Technology says that during daylight saving time, “daylight” starts an hour later in the morning and stays light an hour longer in the evening.
This keeps the hour of sunshine in sync with when most people are outside doing things. Daylight saving time is meant to save energy because most people will be outside and not at home during the warmer months.

It’s the first day of winter, which means it’s the coldest day of the year. It will happen on Saturday, December 21, 2024, this year.
