### Rainy Day Light ###
|
|
|
|
This requires a [forecast.io](components/sensor.forecast.html) sensor with the condition `weather_precip` that tells if it's raining or not.
|
|
|
|
Turn on a light in the living room when it starts raining, someone is home, and it's afternoon or later.
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
automation:
|
|
alias: 'Rainy Day'
|
|
|
|
trigger:
|
|
- platform: state
|
|
entity_id: sensor.weather_precip
|
|
state: 'rain'
|
|
- platform: state
|
|
entity_id: group.all_devices
|
|
state: 'home'
|
|
- platform: time
|
|
after: '14:00'
|
|
before: '23:00'
|
|
|
|
condition: use_trigger_values
|
|
|
|
action:
|
|
execute_service: light.turn_on
|
|
service_entity_id: light.couch_lamp
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
And then of course turn off the lamp when it stops raining but only if it's within an hour before sunset.
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
alias: 'Rain is over'
|
|
trigger:
|
|
- platform: state
|
|
entity_id: sensor.weather_precip
|
|
state: 'None'
|
|
- platform: sun
|
|
event: 'sunset'
|
|
offset: '-01:00:00'
|
|
|
|
condition: use_trigger_values
|
|
action:
|
|
execute_service: light.turn_off
|
|
service_entity_id: light.couch_lamp
|
|
```
