You gained an extra hour of sleep last night. If you’re in the United States or most of North America, daylight saving time ended this weekend, and clocks were set back one hour at 2:00 a.m. on Sunday, November 2, 2025. That means Sunday morning had an extra hour, effectively giving you one more hour of sleep than you would have had with a spring-forward adjustment. News outlets and health resources confirming the change describe this as “falling back” and note the sleep benefit, though many people still feel the adjustment disruption as their body’s schedule shifts. Notes you might find helpful
- The clock change is typically at 2:00 a.m. local time, rolling back to 1:00 a.m. for most regions observing standard time.
- Even with the extra hour, some people experience sleep disruption for a few days as circadian rhythms realign.
- The next clock change will occur in early March 2026, when clocks spring forward by one hour.
