Residents of Hawaii, most of Arizona and some US territories don’t have to change as the daylight saving time is not observed in those places.

Public safety officials say this is also a good time to put a new battery in the smoke alarm, no matter where you live.

Daylight saving time returns at 2 AM local time the second Sunday in March. For 2015, on March 8.
