<!-- Answer --> The issue with the "Now" button using UTC instead of the local timezone is a known limitation in Superset. Superset has implicit assumptions that timestamps are in UTC, which can lead to discrepancies when using features like the "Now" button in time filters <sup>[[1]](https://github.com/apache/superset/blob/master/docs/docs/configuration/timezones.mdx)</sup>. To address this, you can try configuring the timezone in your Superset environment to ensure it matches your desired local timezone. This involves setting the timezone for both the Superset backend and the database engine to ensure consistency. It's recommended to use UTC for both to avoid issues, but if you need to use a local timezone, ensure that both are configured accordingly <sup>[[1]](https://github.com/apache/superset/blob/master/docs/docs/configuration/timezones.mdx)</sup>. Additionally, you can use the `TimezoneSelector` component to select and apply the local timezone dynamically in the frontend. This component allows users to choose from a list of timezones, ensuring that Superset uses the correct timezone for data visualization and exploration <sup>[[2]](https://github.com/apache/superset/blob/master/superset-frontend/src/components/TimezoneSelector/index.tsx)</sup>. If the issue persists, you may need to check for any updates or patches that address this specific problem in your version of Superset. <!-- Dosu Comment Footer --> *To continue talking to [Dosu](https://dosu.dev), mention @dosu.* -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
