I am not sure why I am getting no Output on my console

override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
        // Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.

        let baseURL = NSURL(string: "https://api.forecast.io/forecast/\(apiKey)/")
        let forecastURL = NSURL(string: "37.8267,-122.423", relativeToURL: baseURL!)

        let sharedSession = NSURLSession.sharedSession()
        let downloadTask: NSURLSessionDownloadTask = sharedSession.downloadTaskWithURL(forecastURL!, completionHandler: { (#location: NSURL!, #response: NSURLResponse!, #error: NSError!) -> Void in

            if (error == nil){
                let dataObject = NSData(contentsOfURL: location)


                let weatherDictionary: NSDictionary = NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(dataObject!, options: nil, error: nil) as NSDictionary

                let currentWeather = Current(weatherDictionary: weatherDictionary)
                    println(currentWeather.temperature)

I have never used Xcode before and was just following the steps to get the temp to print out on the console. However I am getting no output on the console at all and am wondering if there is a setting issue or what?

You've used invalid key-value pares, so it returned nil.

            let currentWeather: NSDictionary = weatherDictionary["currently"] as NSDictionary

            println(currentWeather["temperature"])
