Yes.
I'm working on a weather skin, which will also contain a weather forecast for every hour.
Every hour, the current hour (along with the forecast) is displayed at the top of the list.
If the skin update is only done every 10 minutes, the previous hour will be displayed for another 3,5 ... 10 minutes until the update takes place at the new hour.
That's why I would like an additional update every hour

Then definitely Update=1000 should have to be used.
Please post the code you have so far. Or if there are used resources (images, eventually some .lua script files and so on), pack the whole config and upload it.
