Can someone start me off where/how I begin to resolve the time difference.  
I understand that Node-Red takes the time from the NTP server but it doesnt appear to be doing that.  
I set the time in Home Assistant, adding a helper.  
I am running Node-Red via Home Assistant

The time at the top of the debug output (11:00:09) is the time in the browser, not the node-red server.

You may have to ask on a Home Assistant forum why the time in node-red in HA is not showing correctly. Very few here use HA, preferring to do everything in node-red.
