Daylight Saving: Time To Fall Back, Bermuda
Bermuda’s sleep lovers will soon be able to enjoy an extra hour of sleep, with the end of Daylight Saving Time bringing a one-hour rollback on the clocks and a precious extra hour of slumber.
Daylight Saving Time ends on Sunday [Nov 4] at 2.00am. As you set your clocks back one hour, the Bermuda Fire & Rescue Service reminds Bermudians to also take the opportunity to make another change that could save lives, changing the batteries in your smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors.
