Animated weather icon for Home Assistant

A living sky inside a glass weather window: sun with soft bloom and god rays, layered volumetric clouds drifting in parallax with silver linings, rain at several depths with splash ripples, a storm whose lightning lights the clouds from inside, drifting snow, rolling mist over a faint horizon, clouds and leaves streaming in the wind, and a moonlit night with a twinkling star field and an occasional shooting star.

10 states: sunny, partly cloudy, cloudy, rain, storm, snow, fog, windy, clear night and cloudy night. Part of the other icons in the Animara Full Pack.

States of the weather icon

The card picks the state from your entity, so the icon always shows what the weather is doing.

  • SunnyResting state, shown when the device is off or idle.
  • Partly cloudy
  • Cloudy
  • Rain
  • Storm
  • Snow
  • Fog
  • Windy
  • Clear night
  • Cloudy night

Which Home Assistant entities fit

  • Any weather entity gets this icon by default when nothing more specific matches.
  • Any entity that is simply on or off, such as a switch or input_boolean: on shows partly cloudy, off shows sunny. Entity states named like a state below (for example cloudy_night) are used directly.
  • Works with any entity whose state you map: pick this icon in the card and map your entity's own state words to these states with the card's states: option.

How to use it in Home Assistant

  1. Install the Animara card: one link install, HACS as a custom repository, or copy animara-card.js to /config/www.
  2. Edit your dashboard, choose Add card, then Animara.
  3. Pick your entity. Choose Weather in the Icon list if it is not detected automatically.
  4. Paste your Full Pack license key into the License key field once per dashboard.

Prefer YAML? This is all it takes:

type: custom:animara-card
entity: weather.weather
icon: weather

Mapping words yourself looks like this:

states:
  "on": cloudy_night
