log_timezone is set to UTC, which is normally six hours ahead of Chicago, but does not observe DST, so currently it is five hours ahead. 18:24 plus five is still the same day, 19:22 plus five is the next day.

Quoting the docs:

log_timezone (string)

Sets the time zone used for timestamps written in the server log. Unlike TimeZone, this value is cluster-wide, so that all sessions will report timestamps consistently. The built-in default is GMT, but that is typically overridden in postgresql.conf; initdb will install a setting there corresponding to its system environment.
