TTS to read state of an entity

Hi all,
Im trying to setup automation to read the today weather (sunny, rainy, etc) every morning. I got it to read “The weather for today is” then unable to read the states from the entity and would eventually like it to read the current temperature too. I assume once I got this figure out I can figure out the last part.

I’m new to HA, hope someone can point me to the right syntax.

- id: '1588920169520'
  alias: Test Weather Report
  trigger:
  - at: 08:00:00
    platform: time
  action:
  - data:
      volume_level: 0.2
    entity_id: media_player.bose_soundtouch
    service: media_player.volume_set
  - data:
      entity_id: media_player.bose_soundtouch
      message: The weather for today is {{ states(weather.test_home) }}
    service: tts.google_translate_say
