    Back to Standard Time - Time to 'fall back' an hour

Back to Standard Time
Time to 'fall back' an hour

It’s time, folks. The sun angle is becoming lower in the horizon, mornings are darker, the evenings are cozier and you just might get the urge to put your pajamas on a little earlier. It’s time to set the clocks back to standard time… for most U.S. residents.

At 2 a.m., on November 3rd, much of the U.S. will “fall back” one hour to standard time. EDT will become EST, the sunset will feel much earlier than usual, and many commuters heading to work in the dark in the mornings will also return home in the dark.

A big perk on Sunday, November 3rd, is that we get an extra hour of sleep! However, this could really throw off your schedule a bit, so be sure to go about your week slowly and maybe with a good sense of humor.

Check out the WeatherRadar above for a Monday preview so you can get on the right track.

As for residents in Arizona and Hawaii, don’t worry. It’s just a normal Sunday for you. Arizona hasn’t practiced daylight saving time since 1967 while Hawaii has never observed it. There is an exception, however. The Navajo Reservation in Arizona, Utah and New Mexico observes the time change. Territories such as the American Samoa, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, and Puerto Rico do not participate in the clocks “springing forward” or “falling back.”
