  • Temperature in Celsius

  • Humidity percentage

  • Wind speed in kilometers per hour

  • Current weather conditions with appropriate icons (e.g., clear, cloudy, rainy)

• Error Handling: If an invalid city name is entered, the app gracefully handles the error by displaying an "Invalid City Name" message and hiding the weather information.
