Tropical disturbance 'likely to develop' this week, NHC says
SUMMARY: A new tropical disturbance has formed in the Caribbean, with the National Hurricane Center (NHC) indicating a 30% chance of development within the next week. The system, which emerged on Saturday with a 20% development chance, is expected to gradually develop as it moves northward or northeastward over the southwestern Caribbean Sea. This comes as the hurricane season approaches its end next month, amidst recent activity in the region, including Tropical Storm Oscar, which hit Cuba earlier this month before dissipating near the Bahamas.

When do clocks 'fall back' as daylight saving time ends?
SUMMARY: Daylight saving time will end on November 3, 2023, with most of the U.S. setting clocks back one hour. Although there have been attempts to enact permanent daylight saving time legislation in Congress, these efforts have stalled despite bipartisan support. Experts advocate for permanent standard time, citing health benefits such as improved educational performance and heart health. The change will result in earlier sunrises and shorter days until daylight saving time resumes on March 9. If daylight saving time were permanent, mornings would be significantly darker, impacting commutes and school hours negatively.
