Belchertown, Timezones and Graph dateformats

[Chad Thomas]

Hello.  For various reasons, my computer must run with the timezone set to UTC.  I am able to tell Belchertown that my actual timezone is New York, and the homepage Last Updated time reflects that, as do the tooltip times (using appropriate local time settings for moment.js), but I have been unable to figure out how to make the graph xAxis labels reflect the local timezone.  I have looked through the graphing help for Belchertown as well as the Highcharts documentation, and it appears that highcharts should support a conversion, but I can't figure out how to adjust the graphs.conf or skin.conf files to get the right settings to Highcharts.  Everything I have tried either results in errors and no charts showing, or no change to the charts.

Thanks in advance for any help,

Chad

you could run weewx in timezone of your choice e.g.

(venv) graham@wx:~$ date

Thu 26 Mar 2026 11:24:44 AEDT

(venv) graham@wx:~$ TZ=UTC date

Thu 26 Mar 2026 00:24:53 UTC

how you set TZ environment variable for weewx depends on how you run it as a daemon
