I’m having some difficulty with the `timezone.location` option, and hoping someone can help me figure out what I’m doing. In a nutshell, I get the same results regardless of the timezone options I set, or even if I don’t set any timezone options.

I have been testing the code (located below) in the Influx Explorer, and start by specifying the range from 07:00:00Z to 07:01:00Z with no timezone information and get the following result:

> - 0 pressure **23.5** 2022-05-23T07:00:00.000Z 2022-05-23T07:01:00.000Z **2022-05-23T07:00:26.000Z**

Now, I enable:` option location=timezone.location(name: "America/New_York" )`, which should be -4 hours from UTC, but get the (same) result set:

> - 0 pressure **23.5** 2022-05-23T07:00:00.000Z 2022-05-23T07:01:00.000Z **2022-05-23T07:00:26.000Z**

Finally, I change range to -4 hours from 07:00:00 to show the actual data set in the New York timezone:  
` |> range(start: 2022-05-23T03:00:00Z, stop: 2022-05-23T03:01:00Z),` which provides the following result, which is different from the others:

> - 0 pressure **24.1** 2022-05-23T03:00:00.000Z 2022-05-23T03:01:00.000Z **2022-05-23T03:00:26.000Z**

I assume this isn’t the expected result. Any help will be much appreciated.

```auto
// flux test
//import "timezone" 
//option location=timezone.location(name: "America/New_York" )
//option location = timezone.fixed(offset: -4h)

from(bucket: "pressure")
  //|> range(start: 2022-05-23T03:00:00Z, stop: 2022-05-23T03:01:00Z)
  |> range(start: 2022-05-23T07:00:00Z, stop: 2022-05-23T07:01:00Z)
  |> filter(fn: (r) => r["_measurement"] == "pressure")
  |>yield()

```
