Daylight savings time is ending soon and people are wondering the exact date and time to turn back their clock one hour.
Daylight savings time in the United States began this year back on Sunday, March 9.
It will end on Sunday, November 2 at 2 a.m. EDT.
Daylight savings time in the United Kingdom and Ireland started on Sunday, March 30.
It will end on Sunday, October 26.
Other parts of the Europe–countries following Central Europe Time such as France and Germany and countries following Eastern European Time such as Greece and Bulgaria–follow the same dates.
In Australia, the timing is very different–the clocks were turned forward on October 4 and will stay that way until April 5, 2015.
However, like some countries around the world, some areas in Australia do not follow daylight saving, such as Queensland, the Northern Territory, and Western Australia.
Countries that do not follow daylight savings time include many African countries such as Congo, many Central and South American countries such as Costa Rica, and a number of other countries including Hong Kong.
There are ongoing attempts to abolish the practice in countries such as the United States, but as of yet they haven’t been successful. Some states within the U.S. decline to follow the practice, such as Arizona and Hawaii.
