România trece la ora de iarnă 2026 la cea mai timpurie dată posibilă. Ceasurile se schimbă mai devreme decât anul trecut

Romania will switch to standard time this fall, with the change occurring earlier than last year. Clocks will be set back one hour, providing an extra hour of sleep. This transition affects natural light patterns, making mornings brighter and evenings darker. The change is generally easier to adapt to than the spring transition, which results in losing an hour of sleep. Studies show varying effects on sleep quality and cardiovascular health, with the autumn change potentially linked to reduced mortality rates. The exact date of the change varies yearly, and discussions about abolishing seasonal time changes continue in the EU.
