Bug Description

One of the locations set up in my "clock" application is St Petersburg, FL. (This is my home time zone)
The only other location configured is London, UK.

Both were selected from the drop-down of available locations. The St Petersburg location was added first, followed by the London one.

While the application is displaying the correct local time, it is reporting the wrong time zone.

For St Petersburg, FL it is reporting that the time zone is CDT. It should be EDT.
For London, UK it is reporting that the time zone is GMT + 4. It should be GMT (at least for the next week or so)

I am 99% certain that before daylight savings time, the correct time zone (EST and GMT) were being reported.

:Set up in Bangkok, with the clock set to local time - this displays e.g. Bangkok 11:09 ICT
:Add clock 'London' displays 04:09 GMT -7
:(This is with clock 2.24.1)
