On the night between Saturday and Sunday, 26 and 27 October, the clocks will change as we switch to winter time, so the hands will move from three o'clock to two in the morning. The switch to winter time takes place on the last weekend of October each year, while summer time begins in the last week of March, when the clocks move forward one hour. In 2025, the switch to summer time will take place on the night between 29 and 30 March.
Moving the clock does not extend the duration of daylight; it allows daylight to be used more effectively. Thus, during winter time, moving the clock back shifts daylight from the afternoon to the morning, while the opposite happens in spring.
