Check your time, DATE and TIME ZONE settings.
Steam takes the information from your OS. If it shows wrong date and time, then it is because it receives wrong information from your OS.

on steam?

[Cathulhu]

No, in your OS. Steam itself does not have time, date or time zone settings.

So your saying your steam chat log is out of date? by one day?
Which account are you in now?
Log out of 2nd account and back into the main.
Maybe the chat logs have not been updated
Have you exited Steam fully? Use the Steam top left exit. Restart
Maybe it needs to refresh its cache> Delete Steam web cache. in the settings steam top left corner.
Some countries use day light saving.Does that ring a bell anywhere?

I am experiencing the same thing as OP actually. Very peculiar. :)

I tested this as its very odd.
When I type in my friend chat window it shows a time only no date.
This date is based on our computer time.
Only thing comes to mind is the chat time 24 hours or computer time changed to 24 hours>
You say its correct what do you use to check if the time is correct against your PC time?
Our PC uses internet time.

the time is right,only the date is wrong
-there is a date,if you chat someone that you havent chat with for like a day there will be a straight line saying the date

Change internet time server settings .
Most smart phones will automatically configure your computer time zone and set the time on your device using the phone network.

Internet Time Settings on Windows
using Microsoft Windows, you can configure your computer to automatically synchronize date and time settings with a time server.
To do so, type "Control Panel" in the search box in the Start Menu, and click to open the Windows Control Panel. From there, scroll to "Date & Time",
Click the "Internet Time" tab and click "Change Settings." Check the box that says "Synchronize with an internet time server" Update now.
When you're set, click "OK."
