Don't Forget to Reset Your Clocks This Weekend

The time to "fall back" is 2 a.m. Sunday, Nov. 3.

From the Village of Oak Park:

Standard time officially returns at 2 a.m., Sunday, Nov. 3, when we "fall back" one hour. 

Oak Park public safety officials urge residents to use the time change as a reminder to replace batteries in their smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. Working detectors can double the chances of survival by providing critical extra time for safe escape.
