When I saw that we were repeating ourselves in this step it immediately threw up a red flag for me. My question is why don't we use the raw values from the enum that we created and add a .png to the end rather than risking a simple spelling error that crashes our app. The only issue I saw with this when I looked is that for our specific icons the file names aren't the same for all cases. E.g for the partly-cloudy-night case our file name is cloudy-night.png.

I added my final approach there as well.
