2015 Daylight Saving: Precise Time It'll Get Dark in Hamilton, Wenham When Clocks Fall Back Sunday

Not too far from now, we can sleep in an extra hour as we “fall back” into Eastern Standard Time.

Daylight Saving Time ends at 2 a.m. Sunday, Nov. 1, which means you’ll want to turn your old-school clocks back before you go to bed Saturday night, Oct. 31. Of course, the change is automatic for most smartphones, computers, tablets and other digital devices.

Daylight saving time is the practice of setting the clocks forward one hour during the summer months, and back again in the fall, in order to make better use of natural daylight.

What does the end of Daylight Saving Time mean for sunrise and sunset in Hamilton and Wenham? Sunrise will occur at 6:16 a.m. on Nov. 1, and sunset will occur at 4:38 p.m.
