I am experiencing this too. My workaround for now is to add the following to the prompt:
First check today's date. Only run this automation if today is Monday.(still triggers daily but simply skips the task)
TY for the workaround. I am experiencing the same.
I am experiencing the same issue. It shows the schedule and right after it says running will still occur before the schedule:
Also it does not respect weekdays, even though it says so.

Same here... It's odd to me a bug like this lasts 8 days. Seems like it should be a pretty basic and easy fix.
Looks fixed now
