Does anyone know what time it is?
Daylight savings time ended in some countries today. European countries (except our bankrupt friends in Iceland) end daylight savings time the last Sunday in October. Depending on where in Europe you are, that means the switch is happening now. Mexico and African countries observing daylight savings time also change now.
The United States and Canada change a week later.
U.S. readers: take note of future time changes:
Sunday, November 2, 2008 - Daylight Savings Time ends in most of United States.
Sunday March 8, 2009 - Daylight Savings Time resumes in most of United States.
The official time clocks fall back or spring forward is 2:00 a.m., but that likely only matters to you if you’re working an overnight shift or sitting at a bar. And, of course, if you use the ever-parternalistic Microsoft Windows, you’ll awaken on Sunday to a cheery message telling you that the difficult task of setting your system clock was taken care of by the company as you slumbered.
