Fall has formally started for the US as the 2014 autumnal equinox has officially commenced on 10:29 pm EDT of September 22, indicating that both daylight and nighttime are equal.

The autumnal equinox, often times called September equinox, officially started last Monday, but daylight saving time for countries in the northern hemisphere such as the US and Canada and some Caribbean islands will not formally end until November 2nd, according to the Old Farmer's Almanac.

Other countries and places like Egypt, Israeli Bethlehem, and Gaza, however, are set to end their respective daylight saving time on September 26. The majority of the United States, on the other hand, will be ending their daylight saving time by 2 am of November 2, with the exception of some regions in Alaska, the majority of the state of Arizona, Hawaii, the Midway Atoll, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, and the Wake Island.

The same goes for the majority of Canada, with the exception of British Columbia, Nunavut, Ontario, the small regions of Quebec and most of Saskatchewan, who will also be ending the daylight saving time November 2nd.

Others that are expected to join in on ending the daylight saving time starting November 2nd are the Bahamas, Bermuda, Cuba, the Grenadines, Haiti, Mexicali, Saint Vincent, and the Turks and Caicos.

The official end of daylight saving time will push back regular hours, one hour. At 2 am EDT November 2, clocks will be pushed back to 1 am, making both sunrise and sunset an hour earlier, before daylight saving time is officially brought back on March 28 of next year.
