For example, if it were March 31, but then it passed midnight, the date April 1 could be considered “tomorrow.” And so if I post shortly after midnight with a timestamp of April 1, the relevant date rendered into something more vernacular can be considered “tomorrow.”

I noticed the same phenomenon happening somewhat recently, too, and just kinda believed it was because of something like this.
