You've got other problems beyond incompatible syntax.

In the code that you posted, you were doing something like:

http.get(url, res => {
 let data = '';
 res.on('data', d => data += d);
 res.on('end', () => {
   // do stuff with data
 });
});

I suspect you took inspiration from a rather outdated node.js example. None of this will work here. In fact a vast amount of example JS code that you find online simply won't work here without significant alteration.

You want something like:

function getWeatherAlerts(channel) {
 var data = http.Get(weatherURL);
 var alerts = JSON.parse(data).features;
 if (alerts.length < 1) {
  client.say(channel, 'No severe weather alerts at this time.');
 } else {
  alerts.forEach(function (alert) {
   client.say(channel, alert.properties.headline);
  });
 }
}
