OpenCage Geocoder API: Used to convert a location (city, country, etc.) into geographic coordinates (latitude and longitude).

OpenMeteo API: Fetches weather data based on the latitude and longitude provided. 1. OpenCage API Call:
-
Sends a GET request to the OpenCage API with the
locationquery. -

Uses the coordinates from OpenCage to send a GET request to OpenMeteo.
