LAKE COUNTY – Get ready to turn your clocks forward this weekend.

Daylight Saving Time begins on Sunday at 2 a.m., which it's time to “spring forward” by one hour, according to the U.S. Naval Observatory.

This year, Daylight Saving Time will end on Sunday, Nov. 2, when the clocks will once again be set back.

Beginning last year, Daylight Saving Time was extended by one month because of the federal Energy Policy Act of 2005, the California Department of Energy reported.

Daylight Saving Time also is a good time to remember to replace the batteries in your home's smoke detector, officials report.
