Here code that doesn't use at but sleep; it doesn't need external storage of data but runs continuously.
Wat i suggest is to log evrything in the beginning by echoing the variables to the logfile, mainly the Delay to see if you have to adjust the tolerance at another value.
I let you code the different logs you want to make (i can help u) but try first the functioning of the script. You can add lines for monitoring purpose by echoing commands or start the script with the -x parameter like bash -x simple.sh
nothing more before 7:00 or 8:00 GMT
