When clocks fall back at 2 a.m. Sunday, November 1, it will be 1 a.m. again \u2014 a sweet surprise for Texans celebrating Halloween late into the night.<\/p>\n<p>For those unfamiliar, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mysanantonio.com\/news\/local\/article\/daylight-savings-time-22466428.php\" data-link=\"native\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"\">Daylight Saving Time<\/a> is the seasonal practice of setting clocks one hour ahead in the Spring to shift more daylight into the evening, then moving them back one hour in the fall. It doesn&#8217;t create more daylight. It just changes how daylight lines up with the clock.<\/p>\n<p>Daylight Savings Time ends this year at 2 a.m. on Sunday, November 1.<\/p>\n<p>No, the time change is not over in Texas yet. Although some Texas politicians have tried to end the practice, Texans still need to change their clocks this fall. Texas passed a 2025 law that would keep the state on daylight saving time year-round, but it only takes effect if Congress authorizes states to do that. Texas isn&#8217;t alone, as 19 states have passed similar legislation.<\/p>\n<p>Although the U.S. House passed the federal Sunshine Protection Act (H.R. 139), the bill remains stalled in the U.S. Senate with no scheduled vote.<\/p>\n<p>So Texas&#8217; seasonal clock change is still on. Get that extra hour of sleep on November 1.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"It\u2019s almost that time again, folks.
