Mark Your Calendars, New Hampshire, This is When Daylight Savings Time Arrives
January is a tough month to get through if you live in New Hampshire or all of New England, really. It's cold and dark and we long for the days of sunshine and warm weather.
Daylight Savings Time is when we move the clocks one hour ahead, which means we lose an hour of sleep, but we gain so much in sunshine.
Sunset now is 4:52pm, with the time change an hour ahead, we wouldn't have to eat dinner in the dark.
Here's When Daylight Savings Time Begins in New Hampshire
Sunday, March 9, 2025 at 2:00 am. Turn your clocks forward 1 hour and yes, we lose an hour of sleep.
This is when we "Spring Forward."
Maybe New Hampshire Should Leave the Clocks Alone?
Why do we need to change the clocks? I THINK it had something to do with the needs of the farmers. In that case, I would go ahead and do whatever they want. No farmers, no food and I like to eat.
November 2, 2025 when we "Fall Back." Between now and then, there is so much fun to be had.

I remember when I first heard of the idea of keeping the clocks the same time year 'round with no hour ahead or back. "No," was my first reaction because, well, it has always been like that.
The more I think about it, the more I like the idea.
What do you think about keeping the clocks the same time year 'round?
