This update introduces an optimized approach for data retrieval and caching for ERA5 data from the Climate Data Store (CDS). Key changes include:
Caching Mechanism: Added a caching mechanism to prevent repeated downloads for identical data requests. The cache files are named based on a unique hash of the request parameters, making subsequent retrievals faster by using pre-downloaded data.
Custom Download Function: Integrated a custom download function with a progress bar to enhance user experience. The function uses chunked downloading with error handling and retry mechanisms for a robust download process.
Progress Bar: A dynamic progress bar displays the download status of multiple files, with completed files removed from the display to improve readability.
These improvements aim to make data retrieval more efficient and user-friendly.
Closes # (if applicable).
