Weather app

In the latest RailsBridge class that I attended, we discussed how to incorporate apis in the app. This inspired me to create my own little weather app.

As I searched Programmable Web for something quick and not complicated for a small project, I came across a weather api provided by the 5DayWeather. I mimicked the original site to some point in order to display weather data for a selected city. Additionally, I've added a google map pointing to a selected city. The google map portion was taken after an awesome Sitepoint tutorial. The api calls are handled using Faraday gem.
