[New-bugs-announce] [issue25253] AttributeError: 'Weather' object has no attribute 'dom'

[Tony]

New submission from Tony:

The source code for ctw (CurseTheWeather) can be found here: https://github.com/tdy/ctw

Running `ctw USCA0987` or `ctw --nometric USCA0987` (happens regardless of location) results in an attribute error with Python 3.4.3. Running `ctw` by itself does print a *Welcome to "Curse the Weather" Version 0.6* message.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/ctw", line 378, in 
    curses.wrapper(main)
  File "/usr/lib/python3.4/curses/__init__.py", line 94, in wrapper

  File "/usr/bin/ctw", line 283, in main

    weather = weatherfeed.Weather(location, metric)

AttributeError: 'Weather' object has no attribute 'dom'

I did notice the API URL in weatherfeed.py gives a Bad Request error for:

urlHandle = urllib.request.urlopen('http://xoap.weather.com/weather/local/%s?cc=1&dayf=5&prod=xoap&link=xoap&unit=%s&par=1003666583&key=4128909340a9b2fc'

I also noticed the weather.com API now redirects to wunderground.com so I registered a new API and updated the URL in weatherfeed.py only to still get the same AttributeError. 

The new API is something like http://api.wunderground.com/api/APIKEY/conditions/q/CA/San_Francisco.json
