## Change the any weather unit to your preference
## Change any weather unit to your preference
{% details "TODO" %}
Home Assistant has many [weather services] that can be integrated; it is
great to have a choice! The differences between those are often their
accuracy for your region and the units of measurement used for the
different weather data points.
- Insert screenshot
- Change (any of the) units weather entities
- Change units on number entities that represent a temperature
- Improve on story
- Spelling/grammar
But what if you'd like the barometric pressure unit to be in mbar instead of
hPa? Or maybe use m/s or knots instead of km/h for wind speed? No problem!
{% enddetails %}
You can now change the units each weather entity uses! Not just temperature,
but for all of the values a weather entity provides. When changing a unit,
Home Assistant will take care of converting the values for you.
You can now change the units weather entities use, for each of the weather
entities individually. And that is not just temperature, but for all of
the values a weather entity provides.

So, you like your barometric pressure unit to be in mbar instead of hPa?
Or maybe use m/s instead of km/h for wind speed? No problem!
As a bonus, this same unit-changing feature is added to the number entities
that represent a temperature. For those number entities, you can now change
the units from Celsius to Fahrenheit (and the other way around).
As an added bonus, this same unit changing feature was added to the
number entities that represent a temperature. Unit conversion/changing for
these number entites has also been added.
