> Those statements apply to values of type timestamp WITH timezone. > A timestamp WITHOUT timezone is just what-you-see-is-what-you-get. Thanks for this clarification. To recap: So, because my timestamps are defined as timestamp without timezone data type and are stored in UTC, when I display them in their default form they'll be displayed in UTC. I can use AT TIME ZONE to convert the displayed time to any timezone including my local timezone. So why is it that I can get the displayed time to be local only if I use "AT TIMEZONE 'UTC'" ? Anything else will either be ignored or display UTC. Is there a more intuitive way of getting these timestamps displayed in local time? P.S. Someone else owns the database I'm using so I can't change the timestamps to be timestamp with timezone. -- View this message in context: http://postgresql.1045698.n5.nabble.com/displaying-UTC-time-in-local-time-tp5776169p5776257.html Sent from the PostgreSQL - admin mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Sent via pgsql-admin mailing list (pgsql-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-admin
