When using the "Today So Far" or "Today" interval picker in timelion, the day starts at 21:00 and not 00:00 as it is in the other panels of kibana created in visualize. The 21:00 comes from my time zone (-03:00 'America/Sao\_Paulo'). I think that Timelion shows dates only in UTC.

Visualize

Is there any workaround for this?

Thanks
