.map() function instead?

instead of iterating over the data set with:

    if let weeklyWeatherArray = weatherDictionary?["daily"]?["data"] as? [[String: AnyObject]] {
        for dailyWeather in weeklyWeatherArray {
            let daily = DailyWeather(dailyWeatherDict: dailyWeather)
            weekly.append(daily)
        }
    }

… could we instead use a .map() function?

Something like this?

    if let dailyWeatherDictionary = weatherDictionary?["daily"]?["data"] as? [[String: AnyObject]] {
        weekly = dailyWeatherDictionary.map() {
            DailyWeather(dailyWeatherDict: $0)
        }
    }
