log_timezone is set to UTC, which is normally six hours ahead of 
Chicago, but does not observe DST, so currently it is five hours ahead. 
18:24 plus five is still the same day, 19:22 plus five is the next day.

Quoting the docs:

log_timezone (string)

Sets the time zone used for timestamps written in the server log. Unlike 
TimeZone, this value is cluster-wide, so that all sessions will report 
timestamps consistently. The built-in default is GMT, but that is 
typically overridden in postgresql.conf; initdb will install a setting 
there corresponding to its system environment.
