100% correct. That's my mistake. You can make that change for now and I'll update it in GitHub for the 0.3 version soon
The visibility comes from DarkSky, and they don't provide the units within the API output, so I I'll have to grab the DarkSky units from the config, and then change the unit within the skin based on that. And I'll fix the static unit in the records page. Thought I got them all! Also, your map is still showing the East Coast of USA. Not sure if that's intended or not.
