Daylight Savings time ends in the U.S. at 2AM next Sunday, November 6th.  November October 30th is the date for across the pond and, since it is already the 30th there, for a week they'll be an hour closer to us in time.

Although most European countries won't follow until March 26, it is time to "Spring Ahead" in the U.S. tonight.

Currently 19 U.S. states are on permanent daylight savings time.  However, the Sunshine Protection Act, which was unanimously approved by the U.S. Senate last year has been reintroduced to the House of Representatives.  Thus, there is the possibility the U.S. could switch to permanent daylight savings time.

That hour closer is gone tonight.  It is your turn, Panos, and yours too, therock247uk.

It is almost time to change from standard time to daylight saving time and lose an hour's sleep in the U.S.  Saturday, March 8th ends standard time here. As I'm located in UTC-5, I'll be another hour behind closer to my friends across the pond who won't be turning back their clocks until the last Saturday in March.

Since you will turn your clock an hour ahead, you are going to be an hour closer to your friends across the pond. Right?
