Why daylight saving time ended so early this year

Why daylight saving time ended so early this year

(NEXSTAR) – They’ve gone and done it again. If you weren’t awake at 2 a.m. Sunday, you missed the clocks “falling back” an hour as daylight saving time came to an end.

Of course, you may have noticed when you woke up and found the clocks in your house that don’t match the time on your phone or laptop. Maybe it was how high in the sky the sun was when you awoke, or how early it seems to set on Sunday night.

You may even catch yourself pondering whether it really is the end of daylight saving time in 2026 already.

It is, but you also aren’t misguided in thinking it feels a little early for the clocks to be falling back.

Daylight saving time always ends on the first Sunday of the month, making November 1 the earliest date that we can set our clocks back an hour. That is what we’re experiencing this........
