Get ready to fall back! ⏰
Daylight saving time ends Sunday, November 2nd at 2 A.M. Remember to set your clocks back one hour Saturday night.

That means an extra hour of sleep (yes, please!) but also earlier sunsets—perfect for cozy evenings or a heads-up to adjust your routine.

Make the most of the time change and stay safe as we head into shorter days.
