mCurrentWeather is a member variable of the CurrentActivity class, as you can see at 0:21 of the video.

At 1:02 In the video, if the response is successful, the code initializes the mCurrentWeather variable by calling the getCurrentDetails() method and assigning to the member variable the JSON data the method returns. Otherwise it alerts the user.
