Short answer: Yes. Daylight saving time ended last night in most of the United States on Sunday, November 2, 2025, at 2:00 a.m. local time, when clocks were turned back one hour to standard time. Some places do not observe DST, such as Hawaii and most of Arizona, so they were not affected. For a few U.S. territories, the change can differ or not apply. Details
- When it happened: 2:00 a.m. local time on Sunday, November 2, 2025. Clocks moved back one hour, effectively giving an extra hour of sleep for many overnight travelers and changing sunrise/sunset times accordingly.
- Regions observing the change: The vast majority of U.S. states and territories that participate in daylight saving time reset their clocks this weekend; exceptions include Hawaii, most of Arizona, and several U.S. territories where DST is not observed.
- Context: This marks the standard biannual switch, with DST starting in March (clocks go forward) and ending in November (clocks fall back). Ongoing debates and legislative attempts continue about making daylight saving time permanent, but as of this night, the change occurred as scheduled.
If you’re outside the U.S. or in a location with different DST rules, the exact time of the change may differ. If you’d like, I can specify the DST status for your country or city.
