[ARCHIVED] Daylight Saving Time Ends This Weekend

FallBack

Daylight saving time ends on Sunday, Nov. 3 at 2 a.m. — which is the official hour to set all of our clocks back to standard time. But most of us will probably "fall back" before we go to bed Saturday night.

That's unless you reside in the states of Arizona (except the Navajo Nation) or Hawaii. Or the U.S. territories of American Samoa, Guam, Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands, which also do not observe daylight saving time.

On the bright side, we gain an extra hour of sleep. But many 9-to-5 office workers face a dark side too: Not getting to see much daylight on weekdays until next spring. 

Daylight saving time will return at 2 a.m. on Sunday, March 8, 2020, when we will “spring forward” and lose an hour of sleep. 

It's also a good time check those smoke detector batteries!
