Time to Reset the Clock and Close out Daylight Saving Time 2013
Don't forget to "fall back" one hour as Daylight Saving Time ends.
By Rebecca McCarthy
Daylight Saving Time in 2013 ends in the United States on Sunday, Nov. 3, at 2 a.m.
You will be setting your clock back one hour, following the adage of “spring forward, fall back.” The “extra” hour gives you a chance to catch up on the sleep you lost in March when the clocks moved forward and Daylight Saving Time began.
To save resources during World War II, the U.S. made daylight saving time mandatory for the whole country. And it was observed the entire year.
Some studies have shown that extending Daylight Saving Time results in a reduction in energy consumption; other studies suggest just the opposite.
