To be clear, there's 2 things that are going on and I want to try to make sure we're on the same page.
When the page initially loads, that's from weewx's core. So the metric settings come from the skin settings. Once MQTT is connected, then that data comes from the weewx-mqtt extension. This extension has the ability to be calibrated individually for metric/imperial, etc. If the issue is when MQTT updates the page, perhaps you need to set the MQTT extension's units to send. Take a look at this post <https://github.com/poblabs/weewx-belchertown/issues/23#issuecomment-440529099>. Under MQTT extension's settings, you can define which unit to send for which observation. Again, I did not write the MQTT extension, but this should be able to help you.
