Now that clocks are turned back, what time is sunset in San Diego?
SAN DIEGO — Daylight saving time has come to an end for another year, nudging our clocks back an hour as the winter months approach.
While this gives us an “extra” hour to sleep initially, it also means that daylight hours will be shortened in the coming months.
For those who work late, the sun may start setting before you leave the job site. This could mean evening errands, workouts, and gatherings will have to be done in the dark.
