Buienradar pressure sensor

Configuration
1

Just for curiosity I added the Buienradar pressure sensor to my dashboard. My standard setup is “metric”. Hovever, only this particular sensor jumps to “US customary” psi-values every time I restart HA. To get it in metric again I have to set all sensors to “US customary” and then set them all back to metric. However this causes also a spike in the Buienradar temperature recording. Can anyone confirm this?

After an extensive search I found a fix through configuration.yaml in the documentation that survives a restart of HA:

homeassistant:
  customize:
    sensor.pressure:
      unit_of_measurement: hPa

(note: the sensor is introduced in HA by Buienradar as the entity named ‘sensor.pressure’)
