The change happens at 2 a.m. local time, not at one moment across the country. New York turns back at 06:00 UTC on November 1; Los Angeles follows at 09:00 UTC. The 1 a.m. hour happens twice in each city.
Does every state change clocks?
No. Hawaii and most of Arizona stay on standard time year-round. The Navajo Nation in Arizona does observe daylight saving time. U.S. territories that do not observe it include American Samoa, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
What should I check?
Phones and computers set to automatic time usually follow their local time-zone rules. Check wall clocks, car clocks and alarms that do not update automatically on Sunday morning.
