When you select a specific deployment time rather than ASAP, it defaults to UTC. I submitted a user voice on this at one point, but I can't find it. Looks like someone else did as well.

The deployment was configured as required with a soft were available time of 5:00 pm. UTC. The deadline was configured as soon as possible after the software available time. However, the deployment actually started to kick off several hours before the scheduled time. There is no maintenance window configured on the target collection. I need some help provide an explanation as to why and how this happened. I reviewed some of the client log files and could see that the deployment have checked off in some cases six hours prior to the 5:15 PM available time. But this does not answer the question as to why. Are there any settings I should be looking at in reviewing? Did I overlook something? What could've caused the deployment to kick off earlier than the time I mentioned above based on the settings are used?
