Wind speed

Redhat6

Does anyone know if it is possible to configure the wind speed in km/h instead of m/s in the Weather Widget, and especially on the main dial of the watch (I chose to indicate wind speed on the main dial) ?

@Redhat6 I wish that was the case. I don’t know anyone who used M/S. Maybe it is used outside the UK. But please Sunnto can’t you put wind speed in KM/h or mph?

Or is meters a second used elsewhere?

@Audaxjoe In Ski Jumping it is used in m/s. Not sure if this is an available activity type…

@VoiGAS I’ll need to learn to ski first then

@Audaxjoe While I’m not against km/h for wind speeds as a custom setting, the default scientific unit for measuring wind speeds indeed is m/s. Historically, sometimes it’s also measured in knots. But that’s not exactly the metric system anyway.

Again, the feature would probably make sense but I understand why Suunto chose m/s over km/h.

@Flops No problem for m/s, i understand too, but an option for changing could be great.
