Weather Information

This is a simple Python script that allows you to retrieve and hear weather information for a specific city using the WeatherAPI. The script prompts you to enter a city, and then you can choose to get information about temperature, humidity, wind speed, or cloud cover for that city.

Prerequisites

Before you can run this script, you need to have the following installed on your system:

• Python 3.x
• The requests library for making HTTP requests. You can install it using pip:

  pip install requests

• The win32com.client library for text-to-speech functionality. This library is available on Windows systems by default.

How to Use

1. Clone or download this repository to your local machine.

2. Open a terminal or command prompt.

3. Navigate to the directory where you have saved the script.

4. Run the script using the following command:

   main.py

5. Follow the prompts:

   • Enter the city for which you want to check the weather.
   • Choose the desired weather information by entering a number from 1 to 4:
     1. Temperature
     2. Humidity
     3. Wind Speed
     4. Cloud Cover

6. The script will then make a request to the WeatherAPI and provide you with the requested weather information through text-to-speech.

7. The weather information will be spoken aloud to you using your system's text-to-speech capabilities.

Example

Here's an example of how to use the script:

Enter city: New York
What do you want to know about today's weather?
1. Temperature
2. Humidity
3. Wind
4. Clouds

Enter your choice: 1
The current temperature in New York is 20 degrees!

Notes

• Make sure you have an active internet connection, as the script relies on making an API request to retrieve weather data.

• The WeatherAPI key used in this script is a placeholder. You should replace it with your own API key from WeatherAPI for long-term usage.

• You can customize the text-to-speech output or add more features to this script according to your preferences.
