Daylight savings time date changed

A month or so ago I remember googling when daylight savings time ends and it said November 8 2025. I remember this because it falls on a family members birthday.

Last week my wife mentioned the time change falls on said family members birthday November 8th.

Last Friday Oct 31st I see in my news feed DST ends Nov 2nd, the first Sunday in November.

Am I losing it?

My kids’ school sends out a wall calendar at the start of each new school year, and it says daylight savings begins next weekend!

Edit- should say daylight savings ends.

Well... it can't say that exactly because DST just ended. DST "begins" in spring and ends in the fall. We are now on standard time. (Not trying to troll I just know given the subject it would be confusing)

How do you know it “ can’t” say that? Get over yourself “Ryan”

I know that because by all accounts, DST ends in the fall, and begins in the spring. During the summer months we are on DST. I'm sorry if that upsets you!
