Online alarm clock for 5:54 pm
Waking at 5:54 pm leaves you only a short transition from sleep to getting ready for a sunset rowing session on the river. Rather than rushing straight out, use the approach to 6:00 pm to sit up, check that your gear is together and work out how soon you need to leave for the launch point.
Because this alarm marks the start of your rowing preparation, check the sound settings before relying on it. Silent mode can suppress or soften an alert, so set a suitable volume and run a brief sound test while you are still awake. Keep the browser alarm active and the phone awake; otherwise the river reminder may never sound, leaving you asleep while the rest of your preparation window slips away.
For an afternoon session close to sunset, the air beside an Australian river may feel more humid than it did inland or earlier in the day. Allow a moment after waking to check the local conditions, then choose light layers that can handle a cooler breeze once you are on the water. Packing a dry top separately also gives you something comfortable to change into after rowing.
Common questions
Is there a cost to use this?
No, it's free, with no sign-up and no limit on how many times you set it. It just needs the tab left open until the time you've chosen arrives.
Will the alarm still ring if I close the browser tab?
No. The alarm only runs while this tab stays open — closing it, or closing the browser entirely, stops the countdown before it can ring. Keep the tab open in the background if you need it to go off later.
Does the alarm work if my laptop goes to sleep?
Not reliably. If the device sleeps or the screen locks, the browser tab pauses along with it, so the alarm may not fire on time or at all. Adjust your power settings if you're relying on this over a longer stretch.
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.
