UTC time set incorrectly after dual booting Windows

I have already set Windows to UTC time but the damage seems to have already been done.
Output of timedatectl:

  Local time: Thu 2024-02-22 02:24:47 PST
           Universal time: Thu 2024-02-22 10:24:47 UTC
                 RTC time: Thu 2024-02-22 10:24:46
                Time zone: America/Los_Angeles (PST, -0800)
System clock synchronized: no
              NTP service: inactive
          RTC in local TZ: no

It's currently 6:24:47 UTC, and 10:26:47 PST. It looks like UTC is being confused with my local timezone.
Output of hwclock --verbose:
Time read from Hardware Clock: 2024/02/22 10:28:20
Hw clock time : 2024/02/22 10:28:20 = 1708597700 seconds since 1969
Time since last adjustment is 848 seconds
Calculated Hardware Clock drift is 0.000000 seconds

Re: UTC time set incorrectly after dual booting Windows

If you've already set Windows correctly, just set the time and it should be fine.
