Treehouse TeacherAshok;
I am not super familiar with the forecast.io API, but it looks like you are not using the correct API call to get the data returned. The API call should be in the format of:
https://api.forecast.io/forecast/APIKEY/LATITUDE,LONGITUDE
In your code I don't see that format, an API Key, or the sending in LAT or LONG coordinates. The Extra Credit project requires some work if you attempt to submit node forecast.js 90210
in that you will need to convert the zip code, 90210
into Latitude/Longitude coordinates to send to the API call. You will also need to register with forecast.io to get an API Key.
I could, of course, be missing something but my experience with their API is that it is a bit more involved than sending in a city name, "San Diego".
Just my thoughts.
Happy coding,
Ken
