Clock v2.21.92 displays CDT when it should be EDT

Asked by RichardJFoster

One of the locations set up in my "clock" application is St Petersburg, FL.

This morning, I noticed that it is displaying the correct local time, but is reporting that the time is CDT. It should be EDT.

I am 99% certain that before daylight savings time, the correct time zone (EST) was being reported.

I am not sure if it is relevant, but I have not restarted my system since DST became active.

I have also noticed that while the time in London, UK is reporting correctly (i.e. 7pm when it actually is 7pm there), the time zone is reporting as GMT + 4. This seems highly unlikely! Is this a problem with my local configuration, or is the clock application horribly confused?

Can you help with this problem?
