If you've noticed you're waking up to progressively dimmer skies each morning, you might also be wondering when the heck we get to reclaim that hour we sacrificed in the springtime for Daylight Saving Time. Well, you're going to have to hang tight another nearly two weeks, as we don't turn our clocks back an hour until November 6th.
Daylight Savings 2011: When Do We Get to Fall Back, Dammit?
Reminder: Daylight Time Ends Tonight! 'Fall Back' at 2 a.m.
When Daylight Time ends on Halloween, most may interpret the regained hour as more of a treat (although those who forget to change their clocks and watches might find its a bit of a trick come morning). So don't forget: Overnight we "fall back" an hour. Though most of us keep time by cellphones and other devices that do the switching for us, our bodies and good old fashioned wall-clocks, watches, and kitchen appliance displays will need that bit of nudging to move from 2 a.m. back to 1 a.m. again Sunday morning. This is the third year since the official end date for Daylight Time was moved to the first Sunday in November. Don't forget! That extra hour of sleep might come in handy depending on how hard you party tonight.
Don't Forget to 'Fall Back' at 2 a.m.
Daylight Savings Time ends tonight--well, technically it's Sunday morning--when we all need to roll our clocks back an hour at 2 a.m. Those people who are out and about celebrating Halloween weekend and/or Dia de los Muertos (or just plain "It's Saturday, woohoo!") may take advantage of the extra hour to get in a few more sips before last call comes around for the second time that night, while some people will opt to use that extra hour for catching some extra Z's. No matter how you spend it, just make sure you check all your clocks before you have to be somewhere, lest you be the goof who shows up an hour early to work first thing Monday morning. The end of Daylight Time was shifted to the first Sunday in November (as opposed to the last Sunday in October) last year to help us save energy.
