Most people in the United States are getting an extra hour of sleep this weekend, thanks to the annual shift back to standard time.
Officially, the change comes at 2 a.m. Sunday, but most people set their clocks back before heading to bed Saturday night.
Residents of Hawaii, most of Arizona and some U.S. territories don’t have to change; daylight saving time is not observed there.
Public safety officials say this is a good time to put a new battery in the smoke alarm no matter where you live.
Daylight saving time returns at 2 a.m. local time the second Sunday in March — March 8, 2015.

Here in the UK our clocks went back last weekend. Eldest son forget to change his alarm clock and so was 2 hours early for work on Monday. We tried not laugh too much.

Thanks for reminding us… I can’t wait until March 8th though when winter feels over after we change clocks forward!
Happy weekend!

Yes, thank you for the reminder. The one thing I hate is that it will now get dark so early. It just makes the day seem so much shorter! The snow is coming…
