WASHINGTON, D.C. (NewsDakota.com) – The end to daylight saving time is Sunday, meaning clocks in most parts of the U.S. will “fall back” one hour on Sunday, Nov. 3, 2024. Here’s what to know about daylight saving time, and why we change our clocks twice a year.

Daylight saving time is when we turned our clocks forward one hour, on March 10 this year. Daylight saving ends on Nov. 3, when clocks get turned back one hour. The switch happens at 2 a.m. local time.

So, at 1:59:59 a.m. on Nov. 3, your digital clocks, like the one on your cellphone, will not jump to 2 a.m. — they will fall back to 1 a.m. You will need to reset your analog clocks and any clocks that do not automatically adjust.
