Questions

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

UTC is currently 1 hour behind WAT. 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 WAT) becomes 0 8 * * 1-5 in UTC.

What is the time difference between WAT and UTC?

West Africa Time is UTC+1 and Coordinated Universal Time is UTC+0. Right now uTC is currently 1 hour behind WAT.

Does daylight saving time affect WAT to UTC cron conversion?

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

What is midnight WAT in UTC cron?

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