The clock change is a good excuse to check every non-smart clock at home

At 2 a.m. this morning Eastern time returned to standard time; your iPhone adjusts automatically, but vehicle, appliance and analog clocks may not.

Daylight saving time ended at 2 a.m. on November 1, 2026, moving clocks back to 1 a.m. in most of the United States. Connected Macs and iPhones normally update automatically, but watches, microwave clocks, older vehicles and appliances can remain an hour off.

For your household, this is a useful five-minute sweep: check the Ford F-250 clock, oven and microwave, analog watches and any wall clocks. If an automation uses hard-coded UTC offsets rather than the America/New_York time zone, verify its next execution after the switch.

An extra hour of Sunday is nice; a silently mistimed morning briefing is not.
