Rune, The SteelSeries gauges pick up their translations from the scripts/src/language.js file (well actually the scripts/language.min.js file which is a minified version of scripts/src/language.js) If you have a look in langauge.js, down around line 1190 you will find the Norwegian translations. Line 1334 has metres: "meters" which is what will be doing the translation you have seen. You could make the change yourself but you would then need to make a minified version to replace language.min.js, and of course the problem then will be your file will be liable to being overwritten during any future upgrades.
I don't know where else that translation may be used, and I certainly don't know enough Norwegian to talk to the subject - cloudbase/skybase is about my limit :) I suggest you take the issue up with Mark Crossley, the Steel-Series-Weather-Gauges repo owner, you could contact him via the Cumulus Forums <http://sandaysoft.com/forum/index.php> (there is a Steel Series forum there) or you could just raise an issue on GitHub.
