A simple web application built using Python and Flask that provides real-time weather updates by city name. The app fetches data from the OpenWeather API to display current weather conditions in an easy-to-use interface.

• Search by city name: Users can input a city name to retrieve the current weather.
• Weather details: Displays key data, including temperature, weather condition, humidity, and wind speed.
• Minimal UI: Clean, straightforward interface for a smooth user experience.
• Error handling: Graceful handling of invalid city names or API errors.

The application provides comprehensive weather information including:

• Location: City name, country code, and geographical coordinates
• Temperature: Current, feels like, minimum, and maximum temperatures (in Celsius)
• Atmospheric Conditions: Pressure, humidity percentage, visibility, and cloud coverage
• Wind: Speed and direction
• Weather Description: Text description and weather icon
• Sun Timings: Sunrise and sunset times for the location

• Backend: Flask (Python)
• Frontend: HTML, CSS (Optionally use a CSS framework like Bootstrap for improved styling)
• API: OpenWeather API for fetching weather data
• Hosting: (Optional) Deploy on platforms like Heroku, PythonAnywhere, or Vercel for public access
