Two states, Hawaii and Arizona (except Navajo Nation), do not observe daylight saving time, so clocks won't change in those areas. Most iPhone users will see the change happen automatically unless they turn the time change setting off on their phone. To confirm an iPhone will change automatically, go to Settings, then General, then Date & Time. If the green toggle is switched on next to "Set Automatically," a person's phone has likely changed by itself. The same isn't always true for digital clocks and is definitely not true for analog clocks, so people will either have to turn them back one hour before they go to bed on Saturday night or when they wake up Sunday morning. Most of America will return to daylight standard time on Sunday, giving people an extra hour of sleep. While "falling back" on Sunday gives people an extra hour of sleep, it also signals we're in the time of year when it'll get dark much earlier.Ībove, the station clock hangs from the roof at the new Moynihan Train Hall at Penn Station on January 19, 2021, in New York City. Since the first day of fall, when there were equal hours of day and night, daylight hours have been growing shorter, making the nights seem longer. That will continue until the winter solstice in December, the shortest daylight period of the year in the Northern Hemisphere. This time of year can be difficult for people who live with depression and some people experience seasonal depression that comes about in the fall, according to Psychology Today. To help combat some of these negative effects, some legislators have tried to make daylight standard time permanent.įlorida Senator Marco Rubio has been one of the leading advocates for allowing states to make daylight saving time permanent and introduced a bill last year with Senator Rick Scott. Their bill would have kept America on daylight saving time until Sunday in an effort to give families a "critical" additional hour of daylight during the pandemic.
