 * For some reason my site is showing as the posts are posted “tomorrow” March 17th.
   from my time.
 * I am in the eastern time zone in North Carolina (USA). What should my time setting
   be?

 * Google shows the following for your time:
 * 4:26am Thursday (EDT) – Time in North Carolina, USA
 * The time on your site could be showing your web hosts server time or something
   else they have setup by default.
 * You may be able to go into you php.ini file with our webhost and set the date
   to EDT.
 * You MIGHT be able to try inserting the following into your wp-config.php for 
   Wordress and have it work. I guess it just depends on whether or not WordPress
   allows you to overwrite the timezone stuff.
 * `date_default_timezone_set('America/New_York');`

 * I set my time to Chicago.
 * The time is right. However it’s saying that it’s tomorrow (March 18th)
