Tonight, the clocks go backward one hour. This change happens at 3:00 AM local daylight time on Sunday, October 26, 2025, when the clocks are set back to 2:00 AM standard time. This marks the end of Daylight Saving Time (DST), often referred to as "falling back," which gives more light in the morning and less in the evening compared to the previous day.

This adjustment means gaining an extra hour of sleep and shifting back to standard time or winter time. The phrase to remember is "fall back" in autumn, so clocks go backward by one hour tonight.
