> When specifying a coordinator frequency, you can also specify a "timezone".  
> While the frequency is always calculated in UTC, the timezone’s DST rules are 
> still applied.  We can see this in the following two Coordinators, which ran 
> across the DST shift (March 13 2016 at 2am) for the America/Los_Angeles 
> timezone.  The "el-UTC" job has "UTC" as the timezone, while the "el-LA" job 
> has “America/Los_Angeles” as the timezone.  Both jobs have a frequency of 
> {{$\{coord:days(1)\}}}.

> {noformat}
> As you can see, @2’s nominal time is adjusted to an hour earlier in the 
> "el-LA" job, but not in the "el-UTC" job.
> However, when running a similar set of jobs, but using cron syntax [({{10 1 
> 1/1 * *}}|http://crontab.guru/#10_1_1/1_*_*], which indicates 1:10 every day 
> of every month), this isn’t the case:
> {noformat}
> Job Name    : cron-UTC
> Start Time  : 2016-03-13 01:08 GMT | 2016-03-12 17:08 PST
> ---------------------------------------------------------
> ID     Nominal Time (UTC)       Nominal Time (LA)
> @1     2016-03-13 01:10 GMT     2016-03-12 17:10 PST
> @2     2016-03-14 01:10 GMT     2016-03-13 18:10 PDT
> {noformat}
> {noformat}
> Job Name    : cron-LA
> Start Time  : 2016-03-13 01:08 GMT | 2016-03-12 17:08 PST
> ---------------------------------------------------------
> ID     Nominal Time (UTC)       Nominal Time (LA)
> @1     2016-03-13 01:10 GMT     2016-03-12 17:10 PST
> @2     2016-03-14 01:10 GMT     2016-03-13 18:10 PDT
> {noformat}
> As you can see, @2’s nominal time are the same in both the "cron-UTC" and 
> "cron-LA" jobs.  The "cron-LA" job should have the same nominal time as the 
> "el-LA" job from earlier.
