Reminder: Daylight Saving Time Ended Early Sunday (Have You Turned Back Your Clocks?)

These dark mornings will have you wondering: When does Daylight Saving Time end?

Those 7:30 a.m. commutes are about to get a little brighter. Daylight Saving Time officially ends at 2 a.m. on Sunday, Nov. 4.Β 

Remember, you'll "fall back" by setting your clocks back one hour. Many electronic devices automatically adjust when Daylight Saving 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 other devices are in working order.

What will you do with that extra hour? Fit in a morning walk in Gene Coulon Memorial Beach Park, spend a little extra time at your favorite Renton coffee shop (tell us where that is in the comment section), or simply not feel so bad about hitting the snooze button?

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