Hi all, I’ve got an automation you’d might like. I have the limitlessled bridge on my night stand (but you can use any other controlable bulb), and programmed it so that it shows a color depending on the traffic to my work. If there are a lot of traffic jams it turns red (I have to hurry, or stay in bed and first work from home) if there are no traffic jams it is green. And it turns orange when there is a light delay. And all in two simple automations!

  alias: 'Bridge off'
  trigger:
platform: time
at: '09:00:01'
  condition:
  action:
service: light.turn_off
entity_id: light.bridge

- id: traffic
  alias: 'traffic'
  trigger:
platform: state
entity_id: sensor.to_work
  condition:
condition: time
after: '06:30:00'
before: '09:00:00'

    transition: 2  
    color_name: >
      {% if states.sensor.to_work.state|int < 64 %}
      green
      {% elif states.sensor.to_work.state|int >= 64 and states.sensor.to_work.state|int <= 74 %}
      orange
      {% else %}
      red
      {% endif %}
