Probably an easy one, but I couldn't figure it out neither myself nor with gpt.

I have a well-insulated and airtight house, and if it's sunny or even partially cloudy the next day, I don't need heating at all otherwise it will be very hot in the house even in the winter. I need to cool down the house during the night before (turn off heating) so it doesn't overheat the next day.

I'm using the Met.no weather integration, and the built-in weather widget actually provides a very accurate forecast, displaying "sun" which is what I need. Some days may be partly cloudy, but it seems to use its own algorithm to determine whether the day will generally be sunny. See the attached screenshot.

What I want let's say at 21:00, to check if tomorrow is going to be sunny (based on what the weather card shows), and then adjust my heating accordingly.

Is there a way to access this info in an automation?

Any tips appreciated!
