You can have Forecast.io return SI units (Celsius is considered SI by Forecast.io) by adding a query parameter. Using their example it would look like this:

https://api.forecast.io/forecast/YourAPIKey/37.8267,-122.423?units=si

Or just convert the value you get in your code:

double celsius = (fahrenheit - 32.0) * (5.0 / 9.0);
