New York, NY – East Coast residents should prepare to turn their clocks back this Sunday at 2 a.m., marking the official end of Daylight Saving Time. This annual “fall back” adjustment provides an extra hour of sleep but also serves as a timely reminder for important household safety checks.
The New York State Division of Homeland Security and Emergency Services recommends testing smoke alarms and replacing batteries during this time change to enhance home safety. Officials also suggest reviewing fire escape plans to ensure everyone in the household is prepared for emergencies.
