One extra hour to —- sleep in, relax some, exercise more, play hard, entertain extra or whatever your fall heart desires. Daylight Saving Time(DST) 2015 officially ends on Sunday, Nov 1st at 2 a.m EST.
If you’re an early dozer, don’t forget to set your analog watches and non-digital alarm clocks back one hour before bed time on Saturday, Oct 31st. Unless that is, you want to forget – that’s copacetic too.
