Reminder: Clocks Change This Sunday in Waterford
Don't forget! This Sunday, November 5th, 2023, marks the end of Daylight Saving Time in Waterford, meaning we "fall back" an hour.
What does this mean for you?
- Clocks will be turned back one hour at 2:00 AM on Sunday, November 5th. This means that 2:00 AM will become 1:00 AM.
- You'll gain an extra hour of sleep! This is a great opportunity to catch up on some rest before the busy holiday season.
- Don't forget to adjust your clocks! Make sure to change the time on all your devices, including clocks, watches, and smartphones.
Why do we change the clocks?
Daylight Saving Time (DST) is a practice observed in many countries to maximize daylight hours during the summer months. By moving the clock forward an hour, we can take advantage of the longer daylight hours in the evening. However, in the fall, we switch back to standard time, which aligns with the natural cycle of the sun.
Tips for Adjusting to the Time Change:
- Get to bed early on Saturday night: This will help you adjust to the extra hour of sleep.
- Avoid caffeine and alcohol before bed: These substances can interfere with sleep.
- Wake up at your usual time on Sunday morning: This will help you get back on your regular sleep schedule quickly.
Enjoy the Extra Hour!
Don't forget to turn your clocks back on Sunday morning! And enjoy that extra hour of sleep.
