MANHATTAN — Get ready to "spring forward" — daylight saving time starts this weekend.
Manhattanites, at least the ones that remember, will set their clocks ahead an hour starting at 2 a.m. Sunday morning.
The switch will give them more sunlight in the evening but will make for some extra-groggy mornings as New Yorkers adjust to their alarm clocks going off an hour earlier.
Daylight saving was first started during World War I as a way to save energy.
The extra hour will continue until this year's daylight saving ends on Nov. 7.
