I might not be able to answer the question but can you post your code?

I have posted this is Apple Dev forum, as I think I have discovered a bug. I looked at another solution on GitHub, and their build works, although the line of code is the same. I tested this and used their build but copy/pasted my line to replace theirs (ie only 1 line).

I got the error. The lines were the same.

Shouldn't brackets be used when accessing dictionary indexes:

let currentWeather = weatherDictionary["currently"] as NSDictionary
