Online alarm clock for 10:56 pm
Before you finish outside and head in, set the 10:56 pm alarm so you remember to switch the downpipe away from the water tank before the dusty front arrives. That leaves a short, defined job to handle before 11:00 pm, rather than another late-evening check hanging over you after you have packed up.
Because you are leaving the area, keep the alarm running on a device that will remain awake until 10:56 pm, with the volume high enough to notice from where you will be. Do not depend on this browser alarm once the page is closed or the device has fallen asleep: it will not sound, and the downpipe may still be feeding the tank when dust reaches the roof. A separate phone alarm is a sensible backup if you plan to lock the screen or put the device aside.
After working outdoors at this hour, avoid staring at a bright screen while waiting for the reminder. Lower the display brightness, use your phone’s warmer night setting if available, and place it where the alarm can be heard without repeatedly checking the time. At 10:56 pm, use a torch or outdoor light to confirm the water-tank diversion is secure, then finish the task and come inside.
Common questions
Do I need to create an account or download anything?
No, there's nothing to sign up for and nothing to install. Pick a time and a sound, press Start, and it runs entirely in this browser tab.
Can I change the alarm sound?
Yes, there's a short list of tones to choose from before you press Start. Pick whichever one you're most likely to actually hear — softer sounds are easier to sleep through than a firm chime or bell.
What happens once the alarm goes off?
It rings through your device's speakers on a loop until you stop it from this page. There's no separate app notification, so make sure your volume is turned up before you rely on it.
Is this alarm accurate across daylight saving time?
It uses your device's local clock, so as long as your computer's time and date settings are correct, it'll adjust automatically when daylight saving time starts or ends.
