A Daylight Saving Time bug in iOS 4.0 will cause your reoccurring alarms to go off an hour late tomorrow.
Apple has promised to fix this bug with the iOS 4.2 update that is expected soon. In the meanwhile you'll have to set a one-time alarm to avoid sleeping in.
After November 7th, 2010, you can set your alarms to repeat again.

Man living in Arizona I didn't think I'd have to worry about this bug, seeing as how don't use daylight savings. My clock went an hour back and the alarm went off at the write time...... According to my phone.... And I ended up being an hour late to work this morning...
