Day: In Norway, Daylight Saving Time (DST) typically starts on the last Sunday in March, when clocks are set forward by one hour at 02:00 am to 03:00 am. This practice is in line with the European Union's directive on DST.
History: The concept of daylight saving was first introduced during World War I and was adopted by many countries, including Norway, to save energy and make better use of daylight during the evenings. Norway has been observing DST since 1916, although there have been periods when the practice was abandoned and then reinstated.
Traditions: There are no specific traditions associated with the start of Daylight Saving Time in Norway. However, it marks a transition towards spring and is often associated with longer days and the anticipation of warmer weather.
What People Do: On this day, Norwegians adjust their clocks before going to bed on Saturday night or upon waking up on Sunday morning. The change can affect various aspects of daily life, including sleep patterns and schedules. People generally use this as an opportunity to enjoy more daylight during evening activities and may also take the time to check or replace batteries in smoke detectors and other household safety devices as part of routine maintenance.
