No WEATHERCHAR for haze/mist

[maheshjag]

No matter what city I try, I can't seem to get WEATHERCHAR set to anything other than the default. For reference, the response for "London,UK" today is:

{"coord":{"lon":-0.13,"lat":51.51},"sys":{"type":1,"id":5091,"message":0.5896,"country":"GB","sunrise":1417160409,"sunset":1417190223},"weather":[{"id":721,"main":"Haze","description":"haze","icon":"50d"}],"base":"cmc stations","main":{"temp":284.35,"pressure":1003,"humidity":81,"temp_min":283.15,"temp_max":285.15},"wind":{"speed":5.7,"deg":80},"clouds":{"all":0},"dt":1417190071,"id":2643743,"name":"London","cod":200}

I tried debugging a bit, but gave up after I realised that I don't know quite how you interpret the OpenWeatherMap API responses (and I don't have the inclination to read it now :-) )

The important part of the response is this, with the weather IDs:

BashWeather uses the weather ID codes to decide what icon to return.

It looks like BashWeather is properly receiving the API response, but the issue here is actually that I have no unicode icon yet for the 700-range of OpenWeatherMap condition identifiers (atmospheric), so the default is returned.

If you suggest a good unicode icon, I'd be happy to add it, or you could submit a pull request. The icons are specified on lines 11-22, and then you would include the check for if the response code starts with 700 in the rather ugly if-statement on lines 180-187.

Okay, sounds good to me. Will come up with something in the next week or
two and get back to you.

Thanks for looking into this.
