Americans are all over the Internet this morning, asking Google about the current time and wanting to know when Daylight Savings Time ends this year. (For the record, the correct term is Daylight Saving Time.....no 's'. And it already ended.)

So, what time is it wherever you're reading this right now? And when should you have set your clocks back? Keep reading to find out.

When Does Daylight Saving Time End?

Daylight Saving Time ended at 2 a.m. on Sunday, November 6, 2011, this year. No matter your time zone, unless you live in Arizona or Hawaii, you should have set your clocks back one hour at 2 a.m. (or realistically, just before you went to bed Saturday night).

The reason for Daylight Saving Time comes down to energy conservation, or at least some sort of backwards attempts at energy conservation. For more on the history of Daylight Saving Time and the dates for the beginning and end of DST for the next several years, click here.
