# WeatherCLI
This project fetches the current weather and forecasts for the next three days. It uses the python_weather library to interact with the OpenWeatherMap API and the rich library for formatting and displaying the output. The project also includes functions to get the user's IP address and location.
The primary purpose of this project is to provide a simple and user-friendly way to access current weather conditions and forecasts. It can be used to stay updated on the weather without needing to manually check multiple sources.

- **User-Friendly Interface**:
- Uses the **`rich`** library to format and display the output in a visually appealing way.
- **Location Detection**:
- Automatically detects the user's location using their IP address.
### **Additional Features**
- **IP Address Detection**:
- Uses the **`requests`** library to fetch the user's IP address and determine their location.
