Most of B.C. didn’t fall back this month, so mornings are about to get pretty dark. Sunrise in Vancouver will be after 9 by late December. If you’ve got Hue bulbs in the bedroom, the Wake up automation is worth setting up for this. The lights come on slowly before your alarm, starting warm and dim and ending bright. It’s a lot nicer than waking up in a dark room. In winter we’d go with a longer fade, around 30 minutes, but play around with it. Also, if you have anything set to run at sunrise, check it. Sunrise is so late now that those automations are going to kick in way later than you’re used to. A fixed time might make more sense until spring. And make sure your Bridge has the right time zone while you’re in there. At night we like having the bedroom go dim and warm an hour or so before bed. You can schedule that too. We're Hue team and working to help you guys with this transition, curious what people in B.C. are doing about the mornings. And anyone in Yukon, you’ve had this since 2020, so how do you have yours set up?   submitted by   /u/philipshueofficial   to   r/homeautomation [link]   [comments]
