Javascript to get data from Weather Underground "history" API

I have problems to get data from Weather Underground from a historical day (same script works fine for my current observations). Example for yesterday: 

<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.5.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>

heute=new Date(); 
jahr=heute.getFullYear(); 
monat=heute.getMonth()+1; 
tag = heute.getDate()-1;

jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
  $.ajax({
  url : "http://api.wunderground.com/api/ea1cb0c0f1995212/history_'+jahr+monat+tag+'/q/pws:INORDRHE156.json",
  dataType : "jsonp",
  success : function(parsed_json) {


 var minhumidity = parsed_json.history.dailysummary[0].minhumidity; 
 var day = parsed_json.history.dailysummary[0].date.pretty;
 document.getElementById("z8").innerHTML = minhumidity;
 document.getElementById("z9").innerHTML = date; 

  }
  });
});
</script>

So "day" works for me, output is: November 13, 2017

But "minhumidity" should bei '90' (or some other value), but there will be just a blank.

I get both values (day and minhumidity) at the same way, where is the Problem?

Sorry for my english.

your url "http://api.wunderground.com/api/ea1cb0c0f1995212/history_'+jahr+monat+tag+'/q/pws:INORDRHE156.json" change it to (note that i changed ' with "):

<script>

heute=new Date(); 
jahr=heute.getFullYear(); 
monat=heute.getMonth()+1; 
tag = heute.getDate()-1;

jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
  $.ajax({
  url : "http://api.wunderground.com/api/ea1cb0c0f1995212/history_"+jahr+monat+tag+"/q/pws:INORDRHE156.json",
  dataType : "jsonp",
  success : function(parsed_json) {


 var minhumidity = parsed_json.history.dailysummary[0].minhumidity; 
 var day = parsed_json.history.dailysummary[0].date.pretty;
 document.getElementById("z8").innerHTML = minhumidity;
 document.getElementById("z9").innerHTML = date; 

  }
  });
});
</script>

And please add var, let, const whatever to your variables. For example:

var heute = new Date(); 
var jahr = heute.getFullYear(); 
var monat = heute.getMonth()+1; 
var tag = heute.getDate()-1;
