You gained an extra hour this weekend. Details:

  • In the United States, Daylight Saving Time ended on Sunday, November 2, 2025, at 2:00 a.m. local time. Clocks were set back one hour to 1:00 a.m., giving most people an extra hour of sleep and shifting evenings to be darker earlier.
  • The change marks the transition from DST to standard time, with the next spring change (clocks forward by one hour) scheduled for March 8, 2026.

If you’re elsewhere, DST rules may differ. For example, the Netherlands also observed a clock change around late October 2025, but the exact date/time can vary by country.

Bottom line: you did gain an hour. If you’re setting any clocks manually, remember to adjust accordingly.
