Node js creates wrong Date object

Question

I am trying to create correct Date object

new Date("December 15, 2015")

I expect this

2015-12-15T00:00:00.000Z

But the actual outcome is this

2015-12-14T16:00:00.000Z

What is wrong?

Answer 1

Run your node like this:

$ TZ=UTC node

and you don't have local time zone issues.
