Daylight Saving Time: When Do We Turn the Clocks Back?

It's getting darker earlier, is daylight saving time over yet? There’s been a lot of confusion floating around about Daylight Saving Time — and yes, it’s “Saving” and not “Savings”. Despite what you may have heard from your ill-informed cubicle buddy, Daylight Saving Time does not end this weekend.

The actual end date is next Sunday, November 4. Congress changed it from the last Sunday in October to the first Sunday in November in 2005. Please make a note of it. Somewhere prominent, like that fancy phone that you use to do everything but actually talk to people with.

That way you don’t “fall back” an hour this weekend and become the laughing stock of your social circle. But if you want to mess with someone, go ahead and convince them DST is this Sunday. Then make fun of them on Facebook!
