Going to bed for a 5:31 am alarm

  • Asleep by 8:16 pm — 6 full sleep cycles, about 9 hours
  • Asleep by 9:46 pm — 5 full sleep cycles, about 7 hours
  • Asleep by 11:16 pm — 4 full sleep cycles, about 6 hours

A sleep cycle runs about 90 minutes, and most people take around 15 minutes to drop off. Waking at the end of a cycle feels easier than waking in the middle of one.

How to use the online alarm clock

Waiting beside the Umm Suqeim pier, you keep one eye on the clock so the fish can be unloaded at the appointed moment. Set the alarm for 5:31 am and leave the remaining preparations undisturbed until it sounds. With 6:00 am approaching, this gives the crew a clear signal while there is still time to position crates and clear the landing area.

Because the fish must move promptly from the boat, keep the alarm page visible and prevent the phone from going to sleep before 5:31 am. A browser alarm cannot signal the fish unloading if its page has been closed or the phone has fallen asleep. Check that the sound is audible above engines and activity on the pier, then keep the phone somewhere dry, secure and easy to hear.

Before handling the early delivery at Umm Suqeim, a light snack such as fruit, dates or a small sandwich is easier to manage than a full meal. Water is practical in the warm coastal air, while a large breakfast can wait until the fish and crates are ashore. Keep the drink away from paperwork and equipment, and finish anything messy before 5:31 am so both hands are free when the alarm sounds.

Common questions

Does closing the browser tab stop the alarm from ringing?

The page must remain open for the 5:31 am alarm to sound. Switching tabs, minimising the window, or using another application will not end it, but closing the alarm tab or quitting the browser will.

Can the alarm ring if this tab is no longer open?

Think of the browser tab as the alarm's running space: once that tab is closed, the alarm scheduled for 5:31 am can no longer continue. It does not need to stay visible, so you may minimise the window or browse elsewhere.

Will my alarm work once I have closed the tab?

No, closing the page stops the alarm rather than leaving it active in the background. For an alert at 5:31 am, keep that particular tab open; it can sit behind other tabs or inside a minimised browser window.

Does the tab need to stay open for the alarm?

Your device will not take over the alarm after the webpage closes. The tab containing the alarm for 5:31 am needs to stay loaded until it rings, although you are free to switch windows, check another site, or minimise the browser.
