When is it and what day do we go to winter time?

Let’s tell you when is the next time change with which we are going to switch to winter time in 2025. Like every year, with the arrival of autumn it is time to change the time again in a large part of Europe. And as always on these dates, we will tell you the exact day on which you have to set the clock forward or back.

In this article we are going to tell you the date of the time change and what the change is exactly like. We will also tell you What you need to know about changing the time on your deviceswhich fortunately is little because almost everyone is going to do it alone.

When do we go to winter time?

The time change with which we are going to switch to winter time in 2025 will be in the early hours of Saturday, October 25 to Sunday, October 26. As always, the change is made on a weekend so that it is as least disruptive as possible to our work day.

As happens when we jump to winter time, on Saturday we will have one more hour at night. When it is 3 in the morning we will go again at 2 in peninsular time. Come on, we’ll save an hour, to sleep, to party, or whatever we want.

Another consequence of this change is that It will dawn and dusk one hour earlier. This will take us fully into the winter atmosphere, since the afternoons will be darker as dusk falls earlier.

Time change and your devices

If your device is connected to the Internet, it will only change the timesince it will detect the change automatically and apply it at the operating system level. Come on, you don’t have to do anything on your phone, your car, your tablet or your smart speaker or TV, they will all change the time on their own.

However, some unconnected devices may need manual switching of hour. Not all, because many will have the change configured in their operating system, but those with greater simplicity such as ovens, microwaves, air conditioners and others, these will not change the time and you will have to do it.

In short, if you are a person who has an alarm clock programmed on your mobile, you will not have to worry about anything. But if you have the typical luminous clock without an internet connection on the nightstand in your room, then don’t forget to change the time when you wake up on Sunday.
