When Do We “Fall Back” In 2026?

The first Sunday in November is when Daylight Saving Time ends in most areas of the U.S., so in 2026 we’ll “fall back” one hour and return to Standard Time on Sunday, November 1, 2026, at 2 a.m. Be sure to set your clocks back one hour before bed Saturday night!

The return of Standard Time means the sun will rise a little earlier (at least according to our clocks) so if you’re an early riser, you’ll enjoy the rays as you have your breakfast. And you’ll “gain” one hour of sleep. The bad news? It will be dark by the time many of us get out of work.
