UTC offsets for a timezone can change over time. The current datetime_from_utc_to_local doesn't handle daylight savings, and uses the current UTC offset for timezones that may have had a different UTC offset in the past (see comments from [1]). Also, the UTC datetime objects obtained from the Datastax Python driver are naive (see [2]). Thus, to correctly convert them to the local timezone, we need to make them UTC "aware" objects first (using the replace()) before calling astimezone() (see [3]).
