   This is what postgresql does for times around the DST switchover.
   
   ```
   mhilton=# SET TIMEZONE='Europe/Berlin';
   SET
   mhilton=# SELECT date_trunc('day', column1) AS day, date_trunc('hour', 
column1) AS hour, column1 as time  FROM (VALUES (TIMESTAMPTZ '2024-10-26 
23:30:10Z'), (TIMESTAMPTZ '2024-10-27 00:30:10Z'), (TIMESTAMPTZ '2024-10-27 
01:30:10Z'), (TIMESTAMPTZ '2024-10-27 02:30:10Z'));
             day           |          hour          |          time          
   ------------------------+------------------------+------------------------
    2024-10-27 00:00:00+02 | 2024-10-27 01:00:00+02 | 2024-10-27 01:30:10+02
    2024-10-27 00:00:00+02 | 2024-10-27 02:00:00+02 | 2024-10-27 02:30:10+02
    2024-10-27 00:00:00+02 | 2024-10-27 02:00:00+01 | 2024-10-27 02:30:10+01
    2024-10-27 00:00:00+02 | 2024-10-27 03:00:00+01 | 2024-10-27 03:30:10+01
   ```
   
   Here I made the input UTC so that it is equivalent to how arrow stores 
timestamp values. As you can see the trucated hours that have the same 
wall-clock value (2nd and 3rd row) still maintain the offset value from the 
time that was truncated.
