Adding 2 hours but the system puts 3 hours (using system.date.addHours)?

[Lalillo1]

I am trying to add 2 hours so I can get the start date as March, 12, 2am..
So far, I am using this script on the Script Console, but the system adds one more hour.
Is there a bug on the Ignition for this?
Same thing happens when I try to get the date March, 12, 4am.. The system adds one more hour

start = system.date.getDate(2023, 2, 12) #March = month 2, day 12
start = system.date.addHours(start, 2) #March = month 2, day 12, @ 2am
print start

Can someone give me a hint on how I can get the start date as March, 12, 2am ?

Not sure but at a guess daylight saving on the original time?

I would add an additional print start between lines 4,5

Using your tip, I see there's a difference between PST and PDT:
