Clocks Back: 9 Things You'll See
It's that time of year again: time to fall back! Clocks are changing, and it's not just about getting an extra hour of sleep (although, let's be real, who wouldn't love that?). It's also a chance to see some familiar sights that pop up every autumn.
Get ready for these 9 things you'll see when the clocks go back:
1. Sunrise at 7 AM? No Way!
Say goodbye to those bright, early morning sunrises. With the clocks changing, the sun will be rising later, meaning your morning commute will be dark and dreary for a while. You'll be reaching for that extra cup of coffee, for sure.
2. The Pumpkin Spice Craze Continues
Okay, we know you’ve been seeing it everywhere already, but the PSL craze REALLY kicks into high gear after daylight saving time ends. It's like pumpkin spice lattes become a magical elixir for those who need a little extra warmth and comfort during the colder months.
3. "It's Getting Dark Early!"
This is the classic complaint of fall. As the days shorten, darkness falls faster, and you'll find yourself rushing home from work or school before you've even gotten your errands done.
4. More Time for Cozy Nights In
Who needs to go out when it's dark at 5 PM? Fall back means more time for cozy nights in, indulging in your favorite shows, binge-watching, or reading a good book by the fireplace.
5. The Holiday Season is Just Around the Corner!
Yes, the clocks changing means that the holidays are coming. Get ready for the Christmas lights, holiday music, and all the excitement that comes with the season.
6. People Complaining About Losing an Hour
It's a tradition. Every year, you'll hear people complaining about losing an hour of sleep, even though it's technically just adjusting the clock. But hey, you'll be on the other side of the complaint next spring, so it's all good.
7. More Time for Outdoor Activities (…in the Day)
While it gets dark earlier, you'll have a little more daylight time in the late afternoon. This is a great time for outdoor activities, like a brisk walk, hiking, or even just spending time in your backyard.
8. Football Games Under the Lights
Nothing beats the excitement of a Friday night high school football game or a college game under the lights. The changing clocks bring out the best in fall sports.
9. A Feeling of Change
The clocks changing is a real symbol of the seasons changing. It marks the end of summer and the beginning of fall. It's a time for change, and it's a reminder that the year is coming to an end.
So, enjoy the change, embrace the cozy nights, and let the clocks changing be a reminder to slow down and appreciate the beauty of fall.
