In Colorado we will “fall back” to Mountain Standard Time.

Not yet, about 6 hours from now.

SQUEEKY2's avatar

Yeah, but I wish they would just end it, and stay on one time all year round.

jca2's avatar

Yes, unfortunately. It’s supposed to end one of these years, r at least it was lanned to end, but i don’t know f that’s still n the table.

Sorry for the typos above. I’m on my phone and if I don’t pay total attention, it has a mind of its own.

Ugh. No one wants it. Why do we even have it?

jca2's avatar

I just googled and read that a Bill to end Daylight Savings time permanently has stalled in Congress.

canidmajor's avatar

@jca2 That happens again and again. It’s very frustrating. Ugh.

7 of 8 clocks changed. One more to go.

smudges's avatar

Wait….didn’t we do that last Saturday? All of my clocks change automatically so I thought we already did it last weekend! I guess it makes up for the year that I didn’t do it but was supposed to.

Had an extra hour this morning.

We are now on standard time throughout the contiguous 48.

Edit: I think Alaska changes time and Hawaii doesn’t? Maybe all 50 states are on standard this time of year.

If we ever stop changing time will they rename daylight savings time as standard?

I read somewhere (maybe apocryphal) one woman’s comment: “If standard time was good enough for God, it’s good enough for me.”

We rolled back to PST at 2:00 am today, Sunday.

canidmajor's avatar

I’m afraid I don’t agree with god on that one, @Jeruba. I hate the earlier dark during the cold months.

JLeslie's avatar

Lol. God.

elbanditoroso's avatar

One thing to consider. If the world were flat, as some people think it is, then we wouldn’t have this challenge of changing times twice a year at all. Maybe that’s what the crazies are thinking?

JLeslie's avatar

^^Why? Wouldn’t the sun still be passing overhead from east to west? They witness that every day.
