Thanks for your response, Jim. I changed all the variants to
{{LOCAL*}} and checked my local time preferences in both the WE and
Wikimedia pages (-06:00), CST, but for some reason, the variant is
still picking up the server time and not the local time. I flushed
the cache several times in my browser, and will continue to check
later on to see if time changes. Anything else I´m missing?
Here's the template I´m using to include the date and time:
