vcgencmd path in latest OS is different

In latest Raspberry Pi OS the path for vcgencmd is not /opt/vc/bin/vcgencmd but /usr/bin/vcgencmd

Temperatures

The temps only display in Celcius and not Fahrenheit.

The weather one can be fixed by switching the URL metric from 1 (celcius) to 0 (fahrenheit)

I am not sure how to convert the CPU temp in bash properly.

wrong city name

This is wrong:
City Name = "Stuhlweissenburg, HU" Location = "EUR|HU|HU011|SZÉKESFEHÉRVAR" Country = "Hungary"
It is corrected:
City Name = "Szekesfehervar, HU" Location = "EUR|HU|HU011|SZÉKESFEHÉRVÁR" Country = "Hungary"
