    - platform: time
      at: "00:02:00"
    - platform: homeassistant
      event: start
    - platform: event
      event_type: event_template_reloaded
    action:
      - service: weather.get_forecasts
        data:
          type: daily
        target:
          entity_id: [[REPLACE WITH YOUR WEATHER ENTITY]]
        response_variable: weather_data
    sensor:
      - name: "Max temp today"
        unique_id: max_temp_today
        state: >-
          {{ weather_data['[[REPLACE WITH YOUR WEATHER ENTITY]]'].forecast[0].temperature }}
        unit_of_measurement: "°C"
      - name: "Min temp today"
        unique_id: min_temp_today
        state: >-
          {{ weather_data['[[REPLACE WITH YOUR WEATHER ENTITY]]'].forecast[0].templow }}
        unit_of_measurement: "°C"

        unique_id: min_temp_next_days
        state: >-
          {{ weather_data['[[REPLACE WITH YOUR WEATHER ENTITY]]'].forecast[:5] | map(attribute='templow')| min }}
        unit_of_measurement: "°C"
