I visited www.weatheronline.com - everything was pure American - customary units only. I next visited www.weatheronline.co.uk and got figures in both imperial and metric units. Moreover, the www.weatheronline.co.uk site gave me the option to change language via a number of flags. The result of clicking the French, Spanish, Polish or Italian flags resulted in pure metric units in the appropriate language while the New Zealand and EU flags gave me the weather in metric units, the English language, but the country menu was in German!
There was no German flag, so I visited www.wetteronline.de where everything was in metric units and in German. This page also had a Dutch flag and a Chinese flag which behaved as expected. The various countries could be accessed directly, for example, the Dutch version is at www.weeronline.nl, the "EU" version is at www.woeurope.eu and the Spanish version is at www.woespana.es .

There is another thing. I clicked on the 7-day forecast and got a map below the forecast, labeled "Current Temps", in which North Carolina is 33 and South Carolina is 32. Those are typical summer temperatures here. I just walked home from work and there are ice sparkles on the grass, and the high tomorrow is 12. The hourly forecast still says "kph" and puts a space between "°" and "C", which shouldn't be there. The temperatures on the 7-day forecast omit the "C". The box labeled "Your Forecast for Charlotte, NC" below the hourly gets the symbol right. Pierre
