Don't Forget to Set Your Clocks Back

It's almost time to set the clocks back and change smoke detector batteries.

 

Those 7:30 a.m. commutes will get darker before they get lighter. Daylight Saving Time ends officially at 2 a.m. on Sunday, Nov. 4.

Remember, you’ll “fall back” and set your clocks back one hour. Many electronic devices automatically adjust when Daylight Savings Time begins or ends.

When you change your clocks in the fall and spring, it’s also a good time to change smoke detector batteries and check to make sure device are in working order.

Arizona, Puerto Rico, Hawaii, U.S. Virgin Islands and American Samoa do not observe Daylight Saving Time.

It begins again on March 10, 2013.
