When Does Daylight Savings Time End in Minneapolis?

These dark mornings have you wondering: When does Daylight Savings Time end?

It's going to be a couple more weeks before you early risers will get to wake up with the sun once again. Officially, Daylight Savings Time doesn’t end for one more day—officially at 2 a.m. on Sunday, Nov. 4. 

Remember, you’ll “fall back” and set your clocks back one hour. Many electronic devices automatically adjust when Daylight Savings Time begins or ends.

When you change your clocks in the fall and spring, the Hennepin County Sheriff suggests it’s also a good time to change smoke detector batteries and check to make sure the devices are in working order. You could also use the event to update family emergency contact information, plans and kits.

Arizona, Puerto Rico, Hawaii, U.S. Virgin Islands and American Samoa do not observe Daylight Savings Time.

It begins again on March 10, 2013.
