When did we used to fall back?

Published in Daylight Saving Time 1 min read

We used to fall back to standard time in October, with the specific date varying over the years.

Here's a breakdown of when the "fall back" to standard time occurred in the U.S. historically:

  • Before 1987: Daylight Saving Time (DST) end dates varied.
  • 1987 through 2006: DST ended on the last weekend in October.
  • 2007 to present: DST ends on the first Sunday in November.

Therefore, the exact date "we used to fall back" would depend on the specific year you're asking about, but generally, it was in October, specifically the last weekend of October for a considerable period (1987-2006).
