spring forward

This is the weekend... It is time to move the clock ahead one hour and "Spring Forward"!

There are butterflies, boats, basketball, and more on the schedule for this weekend. You will also find hockey games, comedy, concerts, a time change, food and more!

The countdown to Daylight Saving Time is on in Michigan.

There are certain indications that spring is going to be here soon. Some of those signs are starting to appear around West Michigan.

The majority of Americans need one to three days to adjust to the time change.

This weekend the weather will start to cool down and we "spring forward" with our clocks.

Every year about this time I wait to see some signs that spring is around the corner. Things like seeing the first robin, "springing forward" with our clocks, and of course the opening of our local Dairy Queens.

It looks like we may have an unwelcome visitor next week. Weather forecasting models are suggesting a return of the Polar Vortex next week.

Rep. Michele Hoitenga, R-Manton, introduced a new House Bill that would eliminate the bi-annual time change for Michigan.

LaughFest officially kicks off this weekend. It is also opening weekend for the John Ball Zoo. We also have the Women’s Expo, KISS, Fish Fries, Hockey, Pirates, and a free day at the Grand Rapids Public Museum. Also, remember to turn your clocks AHEAD one hour this weekend.

We have outdoor and indoor activities this weekend. There is bobsledding, birthday celebrations, animals at the zoo, concerts, a circus, monster trucks and more. And don’t forget to “Spring Forward” with your clocks this weekend.

Get ready to spring forward! Daylight Savings Time is this Sunday, March 13 at 2 a.m., which means we'll get an extra hour of sunshine, yay! But we lose an hour of sleep, awww :( With the time change, DST can throw you and your day off...
