This is an old Whonix 13 cosmetic error that was resolved in 14. Did you
upgrade per https://www.whonix.org/wiki/Qubes/Install ? Note the Whonix
v3 onion seems to be down right now so you might want to wait a day or
two until it comes back up.

See
https://github.com/Qubes-Community/Contents/blob/master/docs/system/clock-time.md
if there are still issues after upgrading to 14.
