You could probably take an ENB's bloom effects

I asked that question before, apparently you cant

As far as I'm aware, editing the 'lightsemissive' section in the Visual settings will reduce the bloom however, the brightness will go with it. 

 

If I were you I'd experiment with some Timcyc mods like this mod.

I think you should DL EditIV so you can edit the vanilla timecyc & put bloom value in all weathers to 0. I think this should leave it just bright, but I never tried.
