When will we change to winter time? This question is being asked more and more people, because the end of October is the period when we are making this change. This fall, we will move the clock hands one hour through October 25. This should happen at 04.00 after midnight. In fact, this is standard astronomical time, while summer is extraordinary.
In September 2018, the European Commission presented a proposal to move the hands for the last time, with different countries choosing for March whether they want to stay in astronomical time (winter) or in summer time. However, the end of the shift was postponed for now.
The change of winter and summer time is in accordance with Decree № 94 of March 13, 1997 of the Council of Ministers. Enter the summer time every year on the night before the last Sunday in October to change to winter, and on the last Sunday in March – to summer.
The idea of changing the time first occurred to Benjamin Franklin. He wrote a letter to the editor of Paris Magazine in 1784, inviting Parisians to get up and go to bed earlier. In practice, the idea was implemented by the German government during World War I between April 30 and October 1, 1916. Britain was the second country to initially introduce daylight saving time from May 21 to October 1 October 1916.
