Linux Mint: Can I have timeshift take a snapshot automatically before updates are installed?

Because I'm paranoid, I'd like Timeshift to take a snapshot immediately before updates are automatically installed. Currently I have daily snapshots, and choose to install updates manually, but I'd rather automate if possible. The Update Manager doesn't appear to have this option, nor does Timeshift, so I was wondering if there was any way I could either script it (I'm a scripting newbie) or if there's some hidden setting I could use to enable such a feature. I didn't see an option to set a time for automatic installation of updates, which would at least allow me to schedule it later than Timeshift. Thanks in advance!
