It's time for a change in America — a time change. Let's sleep an extra hour to that.

At 2 a.m. local time Sunday, daylight saving time is ending, and it's back to standard time for most people in the United States.

Hawaii, American Samoa, Guam, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands and most of Arizona don't observe daylight saving time, so there's no need to change the clocks in those places.

Daylight saving time returns at 2 a.m. local time on Sunday, March 11.
