Daylight Saving Time switched early #588

Open Gitcrashed opened 3 years ago

Gitcrashed commented 3 years ago

It is currently 7pm 2021/13March at gps 41.87,-87.95 and DST starts at 2am tomorrow. However the sunset and dusk times being returned by wttr.in are an hour later than they should be. It looks like the switch to DST had happened a few hours early.

What about current time? Was it return correctly?

Gitcrashed commented 3 years ago

Unfortunately I won't be able to answer that until next year because I don't ask for current time. I ask for temperature, dawn, sunrise, dusk, and sunset and use the times to control some lights and camera modes.

I noticed that the lights had not switched so I checked the data being returned and the times were an hour off. Of course now that the clocks have changed everything is fine.

If we know the date, and the time, and the location, and the timezone, we can check it the timezone data is correct

I'm at work right now but I'll send you the exact query when I get home.

OK. On 13 March 2021 at 1900 local (CST America/Chicago) I sent this: http://wttr.in/41.87,-87.95?u&format=%t!%D!%S!%s!%d and was getting times that were an hour later than they should have been.

Maybe it was not even related to day-light switch at all, because it happened a week later, if I understand it right. Anyway, thank you for reporting
