OK, as far as changing to km/h. It’s done the same way you would change a label
for any report in WeeWX. In this case, just add the last two lines below to
WeatherBoardReport in weewx.conf. This is assuming the target_report
LoopData section is WeatherBoardReport (which it should be).
[[WeatherBoardReport]]
HTML_ROOT = public_html/weatherboard
enable = true
.
.
.
[[[Units]]]
[[[[StringFormats]]]]
mile_per_hour = %.1f
degree_C = %.1f
km_per_hour = %.1f
degree_F = %.1f
[[[[Labels]]]
km_per_hour = km/h
This change looks weird to me because there is a slash separating the two wind
numbers:
3.5 km/h/ 7.7 km/h
You might want to change line 83 to:
<span id="FMT_10mMaxGust"></span><span> —</span><span
id="FMT_HI_windGust"></span>
That will look better:
3.5 km/h - 7.7 km/h
