"JSONException: No value for current" - response is successful but code doesn't run due to an exception

I've been using the debugger, and the following try { } catch block never runs successfully, and always goes straight for the exception (never filling mCurrentWeather or running updateDisplay();

try { mCurrentWeather = getCurrentDetails(jsonData); runOnUiThread(new Runnable() { @Override public void run() { updateDisplay(); } }); } catch (JSONException e) { e.printStackTrace(); }

What am I doing wrong?

I've done a few Treehouse courses, and this is the first that I've been disappointed with so far. TreeHouse seems to be jumping into a lot of heavy concepts without explaining things thoroughly, so now that I've bumped into what's probably an easy error to fix I find myself unable to for lack of what's supposed to be basic understanding. A lot of the code in the videos and exercises is also out of date.
