Make Some Time for Yourself! March for many of us signals the end of winter and the beginning of spring. Daylight Saving Time begins at 2 a.m. on the second Sunday in March, which falls on March 8th. During DST, clocks are turned forward an hour, effectively moving an hour of daylight from the morning to the evening.
March also signifies the first day of spring. In 2020, the spring equinox falls on March 19, which is earlier than it has been in over a century. The last time the equinox happened this early was in 1896, over 124 years ago.
Early spring is good for those who enjoy being outside in the sunshine. For some of us, it is a good reason to get out and enjoy family and friends. There are many things to do in northern Nevada, and a host of recreation activities to coincide with our beautiful weather. The cities and counties offer numerous activities that you can find in our calendar section. The Truckee Meadows is unique in that there are so many things to do for people over 50.
