Even though the system is now on DST the date command still

Your system correctly switched to daylight savings time, as verified
by the EDT timezone indicator.  Most likely the clock was already an

Just wondering, but do you have NTP running to keep the time accurate?

no
but I do run ntpd -q a few times a year to keep the tine accurate.
