I am not sure, but I suspect that early this week, possibly even by Sunday, something changed at StackExchange.

I used to sometimes check my daily rep and if it is close to 200, to answer a few more questions close to 1pm. However, I got caught out again as today, I noticed that when I hover over my username on stackoverflow.com at around 12:30pm, it was already showing

What happened? Is the SE2 clock no longer synchronized to some universal source?

Daylight saving time ended in New Zealand on this past Sunday. 00:00 UTC is now 12:00 (noon) local time. During the summer, 00:00 UTC is 13:00 local time.

This shift happens twice a year. Some people never get used to it.
