time could be fine but maybe JRE that cf is using is running in a different 
timezone. you can check via this snippet:

<cfscript>
jre=createObject("java","java.lang.System");
JREname=jre.getProperty("java.runtime.name");
JREversion=jre.getProperty("java.runtime.version");

tz=createObject("java","java.util.TimeZone").getDefault();
tzName=tz.getDisplayName(true,tz.LONG);
dstSavings=tz.getDSTSavings()/3600000;

writeoutput("JRE:=#JREname# #JREversion#<br>
        tz:=#tzName#<br>dst savings:=#dstSavings#<br>
        uses DST: #tz.useDaylightTime()#<br>
        in DST now: #tz.inDaylightTime(now())#");
</cfscript>
