Saturday's opening shot

Fall on First Street this morning... and ICYMI: Daylight saving time ends at 2 a.m. local time Sunday. So set your clock back an hour before you go to bed or when you get home after 2 a.m.

Sunday's opening shot

Daylight Saving Time ended at 2 a.m. early this morning (or late last night) ... so remember to your set your clocks back one hour.

Thank you to the Con Ed building on 14th Street for modeling this Daylight Saving Time post for us.

Time check

Daylight Saving Time began Sunday, March 12, at 2 a.m., when you set your clocks forward one hour (or your smartphone or cable box does it automatically unless you got rid of cable, which isn't a bad idea...). 

We'll change the clocks back on Nov. 5! 

And how much longer will we need to do this????

Per Gothamist: 

The push to force permanent daylight saving time nationally gained momentum in Congress last year, when a bill to do so passed the Senate on a voice vote but died in the House. Florida Republican Sen. Marco Rubio reintroduced his bill this year.

Clocks go back one hour at 2 a.m. with Daylight Saving Time ... so if you're reading this post tomorrow, it will be 8:17 a.m. and not 9:17 a.m. 

And the new clocks at St. Mark's Church in-the-Bowery (above!) on 10th Street and Second Avenue arrived in September 2018. 

On Nov. 12, 1955, lightning struck the clock tower, which generated 1.21 gigawatts of power.

Houston and Norfolk this morning... several hours after Daylight Saving Time went into effect...

I took this photo on St. Mark's Place this morning around 8.

If I take the same photo tomorrow at the same time, then it will be 7. 🤔

Anyway, a reminder about Daylight Saving Time, which ends on Sunday, Nov. 3 at 2 a.m. — which is the official hour to set clocks back to standard time.
