Daylight saving time comes to an end soon. Here's when clocks 'fall back' in 2025
Clocks will fall back one hour on Nov. 2, 2025, providing an extra hour of sleep and earlier sunsets as daylight saving time ends nationwide except in Arizona and Hawaii.
- On Nov. 2, 2025, daylight saving time ends at 2 a.m., when clocks fall back one hour to 1 a.m., granting most of the United States an extra hour of sleep.
- Federal laws beginning with the 1918 Standard Time Act introduced daylight saving time, the 1966 Uniform Time Act standardized it under Department of Transportation oversight, and former President George Bush extended it in 2005.
- Exceptions include Arizona and Hawaii, with the Navajo Nation an exception within Arizona, and U.S. territories like Puerto Rico, Guam, American Samoa, Northern Mariana Islands, and U.S. Virgin Islands also not observing DST.
- The switch shortens evening daylight, causing earlier sunsets and darker evenings; advocates cite energy savings and brighter mornings for children traveling to school, while opponents warn of seasonal depression, per the Old Farmer's Almanac.
- Despite repeated bills, U.S. Congress has so far stalled on permanent DST, and it resumes on March 8, 2026, running through November 1, 2026.
