US clocks fall back one hour on November 1 as daylight saving time ends
Daylight saving time in the US ends at 2 a.m. on Sunday, Nov. 1, when clocks shift back an hour to standard time. It will resume at 2 a.m. on Sunday, March 14, 2027, under the twice-yearly schedule set by the Uniform Time Act of 1966.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
The House passed the Sunshine Protection Act in July to make daylight saving time permanent, but it still requires Senate approval and a presidential signature, so the biannual clock changes continue for now. Advocates of the bill argue ending the switch would reduce disruption to sleep and daily schedules, though that outcome remains unconfirmed until the law changes.
- Clocks fall back one hour at 2 a.m. on Sunday, Nov. 1, 2025.
- Daylight saving time will not resume until March 14, 2027.
- The Sunshine Protection Act, which would end clock changes, still needs Senate and presidential approval.
