For hyperbolic flows $\varphi_t$ we examine the Gibbs measure of points $w$ for which $$\int_0^T G(\varphi_t w) dt - a T \in (- e^{-εn}, e^{- εn})$$ as $n \to \infty$ and $T \geq n$, provided $ε> 0$ is sufficiently small. This is similar to local central limit theorems. The fact that the interval $(- e^{-εn}, e^{- εn})$ is exponentially shrinking as $n \to \infty$ leads to several difficulties. Under some geometric assumptions we establish a sharp large deviation result with leading term $C(a) ε_n e^{γ(a) T}$ and rate function $γ(a) \leq 0.$ The proof is based on the spectral estimates for the iterations of the Ruelle operators with two complex parameters and on a new Tauberian theorem for sequence of functions $g_n(t)$ having an asymptotic as $ n \to \infty$ and $t \geq n.$
