Time zone reference
Sitka
America/Sitka is an IANA time-zone identifier currently displaying an offset of UTC-08:00 and the abbreviation AKDT. Daylight-saving time is active at the profile generation time. The next detected offset transition is 2026-11-01T04:19:30-09:00. Civil-time rules can change after government announcements, and historical coverage is less complete before 1970; applications should use an updated tzdb release rather than hard-coded offsets.
