[Python] Web Scraping WeatherUnderground

I'm doing the project that reads the data every hour from WeatherUnderground and it saves the data into a txt file

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from datetime import datetime

def scrape_weather_data(url, time_selector, temperature_selector,
humidity_selector, precip_selector, wind_speed_selector,
pressure_selector, amount_selector):
driver = webdriver.Chrome()

driver.get(url) # Enter The website

# Generate text file name based on day and hour
current_time = datetime.now().strftime("%Y-%m-%d_%H-%M-%S")
filename = f'dane_pogodowe_{current_time}.txt'

# Saving data into a .txt file
with open(filename, 'a') as file:
time_elements = driver.find_elements(By.CSS_SELECTOR,time_selector)
temperature_elements = driver.find_elements(By.CSS_SELECTOR,temperature_selector)
humidity_elements = driver.find_elements(By.CSS_SELECTOR,humidity_selector)
precip_elements = driver.find_elements(By.CSS_SELECTOR,precip_selector)
wind_elements = driver.find_elements(By.CSS_SELECTOR, wind_speed_selector)
pressure_elements = driver.find_elements(By.CSS_SELECTOR, pressure_selector)
amount_elements = driver.find_elements(By.CSS_SELECTOR, amount_selector)

for i in range(len(time_elements)):
time = time_elements.text.strip()
temperature = temperature_elements.text.strip()
humidity = humidity_elements.text.strip()
precip = precip_elements.text.strip()
wind = wind_elements.text.strip()
pressure = pressure_elements.text.strip()
amount = amount_elements.text.strip()

file.write(f"Czas: {time}\n")
file.write(f"Temperatura: {temperature}\n")
file.write(f"Wilgotność: {humidity}\n")
file.write(f"Szansa opadów: {precip}\n")
file.write(f"Wiatr: {wind}\n")
file.write(f"Ciśnienie: {pressure}\n")
file.write(f"Ilość opadów: {amount}\n")
file.write("\n")
file.write("------------------------------\n")

driver.quit() # Close the Web browser

print("Dane pogodowe zostały zapisane.")

And the data reading is based on CSS_Selectors as you can tell, but the problem is that when it enters the website, the default setting is that it opens in the imperial system, not the metrical that i use. And i can't really convert it mathematically into metric system, due to the fact that the variables are saved as strings. There is a option on this website to convert data from imperial into metrical system, but to be fair i have no idea, how to implement it.

EDIT:

I found out the key that is responsible for setting the metric system:
