  - Current temperature with a description and an icon

  - Feels like temperature

  - Max/min temperature

  - Wind speed

  - Wind direction (degree and cardinal)

  - Wind score and description in Beaufort scale

  - Pressure (hP)

  - Visibility (km)

  - Humidity

  - Sunrise/sunset time

  - Next hours weather (6h) with hours, icons, temperatures and wind speeds

  

- Displays forecast weather data for the choosen location (7 days). For each day :
