kibana changing date time field

I am having strange problem with a time stamp field. the field is called tme. the document was loaded via logstash. I filtered the field doing the following.

date  {
    match => ["tme", "yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss"]
    timezone => "America/New_York"
    target => "@timestamp"
}

I was looking at the document in elasticsearch-head. the value is

"tme": "2015-08-22T08:27:08",

however, when i view the document in kibana, the field is different.

tme August 22nd 2015, 04:27:08.000

Is there a reason why this is happening?

It's basically the same date, just formatted differently and shown in your local timezone.

You can change the formatting in the settings

However, I'm afraid timezone support in Kibana 4 is still an unresolved issue. It's been resolved in Kibana 3 but was somehow "left out" when they rewrote Kibana 4.
