Fall Back... DST Ends This Weekend

Time to set those clocks back one hour.

Yes, it is that time of year again — beginning 2 a.m. Sunday morning, Nov. 6, clocks get set back one hour for the end of Daylight Saving Time in most of America — which means the clock at will be correct again.

All states who change their clocks, step forward — not so fast, Arizona and Hawaii. And the Midway Islands, Wake Island, and Virgin Islands, you're exempt, too.

It's also a good time to replace the batteries in your smoke detectors and other household alarms. Change the clock, change the batteries — almost as catchy as "Spring ahead, fall back."
