Issue with IW app units

I'm new to Android wear so please bear with me if I'm asking for help with something stupidly simple!

I recently bought the LG G Watch R and am very happy with it.
After installing Android Wear on my phone and syncing the apps to my phone all seems to be well - except...
All my settings for weather functions in my phone are for temperatures in Celsius (or Centigrade) as I live in Europe. However, when I start my day IW (or is it Google+) sends a 'card' notification to my watch giving the temperature at my home and my workplace in Fahrenheit. Why is that, and where can I set it to Celsius?

Thank you in advance.
 
It's Google Now that's to blame, but I don't know why. My SW3 did this for a short time a few weeks ago, and I had to put up with Fahrenheit readings for two days until it mysteriously corrected itself.
 
It took me a while, but I found the settings.

Swipe up on your home screen to open Google Now and then tap on the hamburger (three lines upper left to open the menu) then tap customize>everything else. You should see your preference for temperature units there. If they wanted to hide that setting, they couldn't have done a better job.o_O
 
As I only use the watch Monday to Friday as my work watch for appointment notifications, etc., I switched it off for the weekend.
When I switched it on this morning it booted up, synced with my phone and immediately started displaying in Celsius - my chosen setting. Result!
Kinda like Slug said really. :-)
