As the leaves turn color and daylight fades, it\u2019s almost time to reset the clocks. <\/p>\n
On Sunday, Nov. 2, Daylight Saving Time will officially end<\/a>, with clocks \u201cfalling back\u201d from 2 a.m. to 1 a.m., according to TimeAndDate.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n Since Daylight Saving Time ends on the first Sunday of November, this year\u2019s change occurs a day earlier than last year, when the shift occurred on Nov. 3. <\/p>\n The semiannual tradition of \u201cspringing forward\u201d in March and \u201cfalling back\u201d in November has been part of American life for over a century. <\/p>\n It was first introduced in 1918 under the term \u201cFast Time,\u201d but was repealed less than a year later. Still, cities like New York, Boston, and Pittsburgh kept the custom alive.<\/p>\n The clock change returned during World War II, when President Franklin D. Roosevelt implemented \u201cWar Time\u201d in 1942. Still, it wasn\u2019t until 1966, when theUniform Time Act<\/a> was signed by President Lyndon B. Johnson, that the United States adopted a standardized, nationwide system.<\/p>\n If you purchase a product or register for an account through a link on our site, we may receive compensation.
