Questions about this workflow
Can the schedule guarantee a morning run time?
Notis cron is a recurring schedule trigger. Choose the schedule in Notis and use the report to review current advisories when it runs.
Will it know which events involve BART?
Only if the available event details indicate that. Include station names, abbreviations, or transit notes in calendar events when you want the review to identify them.
