Which States Don’t Observe Daylight Saving Time? Here Are The Two.
Most Americans will set clocks forward one hour Sunday, with half experiencing increased tiredness, while Congress debates permanent daylight saving time legislation.
- Daylight Saving Time will begin at 2 a.m. on Sunday, March 8, 2026, when clocks jump from 1:59 a.m. to 3 a.m., remaining in effect until Nov. 1.
- The practice dates back to 1918 when Congress introduced DST as a wartime fuel-saving measure, and it was standardized in 2007, with dozens of proposals over the last decade seeking permanence but stalling.

Rain, ‘drought’ and the return of daylight saving time
He’s baaaaack! I’m referring to the TV weatherman who constantly tells us, or reminds us, that the Berks County area is in a drought. He’s a shapeshifter, too. The other morning, he took the form of a young woman. The recent rainfall will help, she said, but the Drought Monitor map as of Thursday placed Berks, southern Schuylkill, Lehigh and Northampton counties within one of two “severe drought” zones in Pennsylvania.
