Time, Stop! 🍂 We'll Help You Navigate the Change to Winter Time Without Confusion!
When I heard this news, I really thought, 'Huh? Already?' 🍂 As autumn deepens and the days get shorter, the day to finally change to winter time has arrived. If you've been confused about whether to turn your clocks back or forward, don't worry! 😉 We'll explain it easily and enjoyably in this post!
Hello, everyone!
As autumn deepens, many of you might be feeling 'time flies' due to the noticeably shorter days. 🍂 I became genuinely interested after seeing these news reports. This is because the day to change to winter time, along with the end of Daylight Saving Time (DST), is fast approaching. Despite it being a change we experience every year, the question 'Should I turn my clocks back or forward?' always makes us pause for a moment. 😅
⏰ When Exactly is the Time Change?
This fall time change will occur on the last weekend of October. Specifically, it will be from the early morning of Saturday the 25th to Sunday the 26th. That's this coming weekend! 🗓️
🔙 Should We Turn Clocks Back or Forward?
To get straight to the point, this time, we need to turn our clocks back. 🕰️ In other words, we are ending Daylight Saving Time and returning to standard time. Many people get confused, but in autumn, the sun rises and sets earlier, so we turn the time back by one hour to align with our daily patterns.
For example, 3:00 AM will become 2:00 AM. Thanks to this, you'll be able to sleep an extra hour on Saturday night! 😴

🗓️ Winter Time Lasts Until Spring
The clocks, which have been turned back, will remain that way until next spring, when they are turned forward again in March. In spring, we will adjust the time again to implement Daylight Saving Time and make the days longer. This recurring annual change brings a small shift to our daily lives, but it also serves as a signal that further emphasizes the change of seasons.
💡 Why is This Time Change Happening?
Daylight Saving Time (DST) was originally introduced with the goal of saving energy. The idea was to utilize daylight hours more efficiently to reduce lighting usage. However, in modern society, there is debate about its energy-saving effectiveness, and research on its impact on health is also actively being conducted.
While this change might temporarily disrupt sleep patterns, how about thinking of it as a small event to welcome the new season? 😊
🤔 What Do You Think?
What are your thoughts upon hearing the news of the time change? Some of you might be thinking, 'Great, I can sleep an extra hour!' while others might feel, 'Changing clocks is kind of a hassle!' Personally, I love the longer nights of autumn and winter, so I'm excited about being able to enjoy cozy moments even more. ☕️
This coming weekend, I hope you adjust not only your clocks but also your body's internal clock to have a comfortable weekend. ✨
With warm wishes, I hope your day always shines brightly. ❤️
