Daylight Saving Time 2024 Fall Back Clocks

This Sunday, November 3, 2024, marks the end of Daylight Saving Time (DST) in the United States. At precisely 2 a.m., clocks will be set back one hour, signaling the return to Standard Time. This change is part of the annual routine where clocks “fall back” to adjust for the shorter days of winter.

The time change will result in it getting darker earlier in the evening, but it will also mean more daylight in the mornings. This adjustment can sometimes disrupt sleep patterns and daily routines, so it is advisable to prepare in advance. For example, setting clocks back before going to bed on Saturday night can help avoid confusion in the morning.

In addition to adjusting clocks, it is a good idea to check other time-keeping devices such as smart home devices, car clocks, and any other automated systems that may need manual adjustment. This ensures a smooth transition and avoids any potential disruptions.

The end of DST is a universal change across most of the United States, except for Hawaii and Arizona (except for the Navajo Nation, which does observe DST). This change is mandated by federal law and is intended to make better use of natural daylight during the summer months..
