Temperature and humidity sensor that tell you the temperature and humidity to help you take shorter showers and to stop mold from growing.

Story
Here is a little Project that I have made that when turned on, it will read the temperature and humidity of a room, preferably the bathroom. I created this on hopes that it will reduce an ideal environment for mold to grow and to help you take shorter showers to save water. You start by pressing the button and turning the water sensor on. The water sensor will go on the bottom of the tub and the water touching the water sensor will turn the green LED on. There is an OLED screen that will display the temperature and humidity along with the information that the water sensor is picking up. Once the green LED is on and the temperature and humidity passes a certain number, the red LED will start to blink, and the buzzer will give off a quick beep to let you know that you are creating an environment for mold to grow.
Once you are done with your shower, you can press the button again and that will turn off the buzzer and the red LED off, if they are on. I have also added a visual representation of the temperature with HUE LED smart lights. Going from blue for cold, green for comfortable temperatures, orange for warm, and red for hot. I added this in case someone is hard of hearing and won't hear the buzzer beep.
