We don't change our clocks in Arizona this evening

Just a reminder - that in most of the United States, before everyone goes to bed they will be setting their clocks back for Sunday morning, November 3rd at 2am, Daylight Savings Time will end as they all revert back to Standard Time.

Several states, including those of us here in Arizona (except some Indian Reservations), Hawaii, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and American Samoa have chosen not to observe Daylight Saving Time so none of us change our clocks at anytime during the year.
In almost all cases, computers, cell phones and cable boxes will make this change automatically without our help..

Even though here in Arizona we don't change our clocks, this is always a great time to change the batteries in our smoke and carbon monoxide alarms

Those who observe daylight savings, will then move their clocks ahead to begin Daylight Savings Time "1 hour" at 2am on the 2nd Sunday in March, March 9th, 2014  

So remember if you cross the river to California or head up to Las Vegas, it will be an hour earlier!!
