I ... THINK it might be possible?
Something like this, maybe (substitute -300 for your timezone offset in
minutes):
%(pretty{text})%(void(zone{text}))%<(ne -300)%(void(szone{text}))%<(eq 1)
(Local: %(date2local{text})%(day{text}) %(hour{text}):%02(min{text})
%(tzone{text}))%>%>
You probably want to put a test for %(nodate) around that. The idea is
you want to check the timezone before the call to date2local.
