Setting up Local Weather Sync with OpenWeatherMap

To do this, the controller uses OpenWeatherMaps's weather data to display your local weather data, to mimic sunrise/sunset
times based on your location, and coming in a future update, it will use that data to simulate local weather conditions; clouds,
lightning, & the lunar cycle.

Setting up the OpenWeatherMap API Key

To access to OpenWeatherMap's data, you will need to remove the controller's SD card, to edit a file, sign up to
OpenWeatherMap, generate a "Key", which you will copy, then edit a file on the controller's SD card, "weathAPI.txt", paste
the Key, you just copied, into the correct location in the file, and save. Then put the SD card back into the controller and
restart the controller.
