Questions

How do I convert a cron expression from SAST to WAT?

WAT is currently 1 hour behind SAST. Subtract 1 hour to the hour field, and shift the day-of-week if the time crosses midnight. For example, 0 9 * * 1-5 (weekdays at 09:00 SAST) becomes 0 8 * * 1-5 in WAT.

What is the time difference between SAST and WAT?

South Africa Standard Time is UTC+2 and West Africa Time is UTC+1. Right now wAT is currently 1 hour behind SAST.

Does daylight saving time affect SAST to WAT cron conversion?

Neither SAST nor WAT observes daylight saving time, so the 1 hour difference stays the same all year.

What is midnight SAST in WAT cron?

Midnight in SAST (0 0 * * *) is 0 23 * * * in WAT, on the previous day.
