Constant restarts due to inability to fetch weather data #62

Description

@Briaks01

Problem
The application keeps restarting repeatedly because it fails to retrieve weather data. The root cause is that OpenWeatherMap is not accessible in my country (blocked/restricted), which causes the weather fetch request to fail continuously, triggering an endless restart loop.

Expected Behavior
The application should either:
1.Handle the weather fetch failure gracefully without causing a restart loop
2.Provide an alternative weather data source

Current Behavior
1.App attempts to fetch weather from OpenWeatherMap
2.Request fails due to regional restrictions
3.App crashes/restarts
4.The cycle repeats indefinitely

Possible Solutions
1.Add support for alternative weather providers (e.g., WeatherAPI, Open-Meteo, AccuWeather, Weatherbit)
2.Add a fallback mechanism when the primary weather source is unavailable
3.Allow users to configure a custom weather API endpoint in settings
