Daylight Saving Time Returns Early In 2026 As Days Grow Longer
• Daylight Saving Time will begin on March 8, 2026, the earliest date permitted under U.S. law.
• Lawmakers are still debating whether to make Daylight Saving Time permanent, with no guaranteed changes yet.
• If no action is taken by Congress, clocks will revert to standard time on November 1, 2026.
Relief from dark mornings as daylight increases
Relief is on the horizon for those tired of dark mornings and early sunsets, as daylight hours steadily increase through January and the anticipation of Daylight Saving Time (DST) builds. In 2026, clocks will spring forward on March 8, marking the earliest possible date under current U.S. law. This means longer evenings and more daylight during peak activity hours.
