Hi.
It should be probably CET not CEST.
arrows(as.POSIXct("2021-04-21 00:00:00", tz="CEST"),
0.3,
as.POSIXct("2021-04-21 00:00:00", tz="CEST"),
0.2,
length=0.07, angle=15)
arrows(as.POSIXct("2021-04-21 00:00:00", tz="CET"),
0.3,
as.POSIXct("2021-04-21 00:00:00", tz="CET"),
0.2,
length=0.07, angle=15)
Cheers
Petr
