Icon versus present weather discrepancy

[sdennstaedt]

Appears that in this case for MSY, the present weather icon is showing as rain, when thunderstorms are occurring. Wouldn't the thunderstorm icon be more appropriate here?

Here's some of the json output for this...

I can confirm this is a bug that we're tracking internally.
