integration met (meteorologisk institutt) does not provide the correct information (at night)

[ChristophCaina]

The problem

file /homeassistant/components/met/const.py is clearly showing the following information available:

from homeassistant.components.weather import (
    ATTR_CONDITION_CLEAR_NIGHT,

but within the card, only "Sunny" will be shown - even at midnight.

The Screenshot compares the information provided by AccuWeather (top) and the information provided by the 'met' integration at the same time (the time can be seen below in the tile card)

Would be great to get this fixed

The met.no API returns cloudy and partlycloudy for the night forecast. This isn't handled in a correct way in the HA code. cloudy, partlycloudy and clear conditions can apply both to the day and to the night.

HA appears to be missing logic to decide if it should use an icon with the sun or something else based on the sunset and sunrise.

Some examples would be

• if the sun sets before that time, show clear/cloudy/partlycloudy/etc night for all time intervals until the sun rises
• if the sun rises before that time, show clear/cloudy/partlycloudy/etc with a sun icon until sunset

@thimic @frenck: Maybe you have an idea who could look at this?

This issue needs to be kept open, it's still very much an issue as 3AM shows bright sunshine on the forecast.
