Weather forecast units is hardcoded 'us'

[BertLindeman]

Maybe 'auto' would be the easiest choice for units in def getwx().

    wxurl += str(Config.location.lat) + ',' + \
        str(Config.location.lng)
    wxurl += '?units=auto&lang=' + Config.Language.lower() # /BL hardcoded units, maybe auto easier than us?

For me it resulted in a forecast with snow height in inches. Would like mm or even cm ;-)

[BertLindeman]

There are conversions in PyQtPiClock that produce curious results if I use auto for the units ;-) Currently the temperature in about minus 1.3 Celsius and "converted from Fahrenheit into Celsius" So I was thinking a bit too easy about this. Picture with the wrong values ;-)

Minus 20 Celsius is here very rare, for @xenon462 it is more common ;-)

I removed the multiplication by the coefficient. Everything is working fine for me.

Ah, so not so difficult, but to generalize it sti;; takes some programming the conversion depending on the units variable. Thank you for the update.

Just some doc from DarkSky website

Doc from DarkSky:

units=[units] optional

Return weather conditions in the requested units. [units] should be one of the following:

• auto: automatically select units based on geographic location
• ca: same as si, except that windSpeed and windGust are in kilometers per hour
• uk2: same as si, except that nearestStormDistance and visibility are in miles, and windSpeed and windGust in miles per hour
• us: Imperial units (the default)
• si: SI units

SI units are as follows:

summary: Any summaries containing temperature or snow accumulation units will have their values in degrees Celsius or in centimeters (respectively).

• nearestStormDistance: Kilometers.
• precipIntensity: Millimeters per hour.
• precipIntensityMax: Millimeters per hour.
• precipAccumulation: Centimeters.
• temperature: Degrees Celsius.
• temperatureMin: Degrees Celsius.
• temperatureMax: Degrees Celsius.
• apparentTemperature: Degrees Celsius.
• dewPoint: Degrees Celsius.
• windSpeed: Meters per second.
• windGust: Meters per second.
• pressure: Hectopascals.
• visibility: Kilometers.

A test shows:

If units=auto is used, the units used is reported back in the json flag field like this:
