According to TimeAndDate.com, daylight saving time will draw to a close on Sunday, Nov. 5, this year. Those who are still out on Saturday night will see the clocks on their cellphones suddenly drop back an our as soon as 2 a.m. (ET) hits, which is an exciting prospect for many, as that means an extra hour of sleep.
And while there are those that simply shrug and dutifully change their clocks in accordance with the practice, there are others who are hoping time’s up for daylight saving time.
The National Conference of State Legislatures (NCSL) tells of how about 450 bills and resolutions that seek to establish a year-round daylight saving time in the U.S. have been — and are being — considered. In fact, a version of such a bill was reintroduced in the Senate toward the start of this year, along with a companion version in the House.
This means that there would be no change in clocks in a move that some in the medical community, as explained by Harvard Health Publishing, would mitigate the harmful health effects daylight saving time may have such as increased fatigue
Regardless, time will change this year, so remember — set your clocks for Sunday, Nov. 5 for the end of daylight saving time.
