ok so i am looking at the skycons which i have mostly understood except for one thing :how on earth do i address the icons that i have recieved from the api?

```auto
// i know this is working because i checked my console
        
      var skycon= (data.currently.icon);

//but not too sure why this is returning undefined???
//this is how i saw it be defined in this fine pen
 
      console.log(skycon.CLEAR_NIGHT)

//furthermore i would like to know how to address my if statement.

      if (skycon=*skycon.CLEAR_NIGHT
    
 

```

this is how i saw it be defined in this fine pen

Hi. Just looking at the finished product I noticed some style issues.

1. A black cloud sitting on a background image of space is almost invisible.

2. If you move the browser size the cloud appears over the temperature.

3. It gives the weather for Warrington and I’m in Leeds (about 70 miles away). Can you get it more local?

F/C button works fine but I have no idea what the 2 buttons to the left of it do. They disappear when you mouse over.
