Hi Tom,
I have not modified [StdConvert]. Another interesting thing is that I don't
believe that my extensions.py is getting read. I had to modify wview.py to
get the database to include the lightning_strikes and avg_distance.
[StdConvert]
# The target_unit affects only the unit system in the database. Once
# chosen it cannot be changed without converting the entire database.
# Modification of target_unit after starting weewx will result in
# corrupt data - the database will contain a mix of US and METRIC data.
#
# The value of target_unit does not affect the unit system for
# reporting - reports can display US, Metric, or any combination of
units.
#
# In most cases, target_unit should be left as the default: US
#
# In particular, those migrating from a standard wview installation
# should use US since that is what the wview database contains.
# DO NOT MODIFY THIS VALUE UNLESS YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING!
target_unit = US # Options are 'US', 'METRICWX', or 'METRIC'
