9 years ago Looks like there were some problems decoding the json response. This could have been caused by a problem with the forecast.io http API or user error. Either way, I have included a line which should alert you to these sort of situations more clearly in the latest version 1.3.4
When using python 3 with this library, I get this error. Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Users\Derek Riemer\Google Drive\python\weather\weather.py", line 59, in

I get the same error in django where I am playing around with weather data on a website. I dug into this a bit and I can't quite pinpoint any reason why this shouldn't work. Some people have had this error before on stack overflow, but I didn't really find a cure for the issue there, besides the possibility of malformed json. it works fine with python2, but I didn't see anything about which versions of python it should work with.
