It’s almost time to set your clocks back by an hour as Daylight Saving Time ends this weekend. Millions of Americans are being reminded that the biannual time change takes place this Sunday, Nov. 2, 2025.

DST takes place each year on the second Sunday of March and ends on the first Sunday in November.

While DST was observed in some areas, the tradition became official in the U.S. in 1966 when the Uniform Time Act of 1966 was passed. The law was amended by The Energy Policy Act of 2005 , which extended standard daylight time from March to November, after previously running from April to October.

Each March, Americans are reminded to move their clocks ahead one hour as they “spring forward.” Then in November, the clocks “fall back” an hour, leading to an extra hour of sleep that night.
