Hello,
Here is an article published this morning on VR: https: //voilesetvoiliers.ouest-france.fr/course-au-large/vendee-globe/vendee-globe-virtuel-9-nouvelles-astuces-pour-gagner-des-places -on-virtual-regatta-4c0c117c-22a1-11eb-b29d-eff31953f1f4

It says this:
"" Virtual Regatta always makes its weather updates, every six hours, at the same times: 6.30am, 12.30pm, 6.30pm and 12.30am (French time). For modifications and trajectory programming, they must therefore be done immediately after these updates "."

Can you confirm this?

I see on the forum on the following topic: http://zezo.org/forum.pl?tid=6109

"in UE check Zezo shortly after 10:30, 16:30, 22:30, and 04:30 for new routing based on the new weather data"

Suddenly, I am a little lost on the hour of the effective changes on Zezo and VR to put my way.

Thanks for the answer ^^

10:30, 16:30, 22:30, and 04:30 are in UTC, which is the same as 6.30am, ... in CET

CET = UTC+1 ?
=> 12h30 CET = 11h30 UTC ?

Yes, in the summer ;-)

Seriously, that's when the update begins and you may start seeing new data, but you don't yet have data for complete routing.

So the statement is correct, in a sense - you start checking your boat at those times. But you may have to check again in an hour or two.

So, if I resume :

New forecasts begin : (next 6h)
5:30, 11:30, 17:30, 23:30 CET (winter time)

New forecasts end : (next 16d)
7:00, 13:00, 19:00, 01:00 CET (winter time)

After that (until next new forecasts) forecasts are unchanged.

In between, VR smooths between new and old forecasts.

Tell me if I misunderstood
