Daylight Saving Time Word Search

Daylight saving time in the United States starts on the second Sunday in March and ends on the first Sunday in November, with clocks changing at two in the morning. Hawaii and most of Arizona skip it entirely. The energy savings that once justified the practice have been studied for decades with mixed results.
