    How can I get the weather module to show the forecast in Celsius? The values below are in Fahrenheit not Celsius otherwise we would be fried.

            {
                module: "weather",
                position: "top_left",
                config: {
                    type: 'forecast',
                    weatherProvider: 'weathergov',
                    apiBase: 'https://api.weather.gov/points/', 
                    weatherEndpoint: '/forecast',
                    units: 'metric',
                    updateInterval: 180000,
                    timeFormat: 12,
                    degreeLabel: true,
                    colored: true,
                    fade: false,
                    roundTemp: true,
                    showPrecipitationAmount: true,
                    appendLocationNameToHeader: false,
                    initialLoadDelay: 5000,
                    lat: XX, // your latitude
                    lon: XX, // your longitude
                }
    	    },

      @chanster Do you mind me asking where you’re located? Using weather.gov as a weather provider with Celsius isn’t a standard thing (and much as I can imagine that the API handles C properly, it won’t shock me if it doesn’t).

        @wenike I’m in California but I’m a transplant from Australia and I still cannot get used to Fahrenheit ! :). So I need to use a different provider? I tried using OpenWeatherMap but I found that their forecast is not very accurate.

        I switched it over to Weatherbit and am getting the temperature in Celsius now. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!

          @chanster I’m glad that it was! Hopefully it stays accurate for you too.
