Glad it worked!

Yeah, so there is some configuring you can play around with. First question, 
are you wanting to set this up for a contour, image, or both?

Let's first start creating a site override.

On EDEX, create the following directory:

mkdir -p /awips2/edex/data/utility/common_static/site/OAX/styleRules/

Copy in the styleRule file 

(for a contour: d2dContourStyleRules.xml)
(for an image: gridImageryStyleRules.xml)

cp 
/awips2/edex/data/utility/common_static/base/styleRules/gridImageryStyleRules.xml
 /awips2/edex/data/utility/common_static/site/OAX/styleRules/

Edit the site override file:
vi 
/awips2/edex/data/utility/common_static/site/OAX/styleRules/gridImageryStyleRules.xml

And then you'll want an entry similar to this (notice you can just set the 
units to be "mph" and the conversion will happen for you, no need to multiply 
by 2.24). You can change the max/min, levelScale (LOG or LINEAR), which values 
you want labeled on the color bar, and which colortable. This just uses the 
default Grid/Gridded Data colormap, but if you have an existing colorscale you 
could create a new one based off that.

 <styleRule>
        <paramLevelMatches>
            <parameter>GSTX</parameter>
            <parameter>GSTF</parameter>
        </paramLevelMatches>
        <imageStyle>
         <interpolate>false</interpolate>
            <displayUnits>mph</displayUnits>
            <range scale="LINEAR">
                <minValue>0</minValue>
                <maxValue>250</maxValue>
            </range>
            <defaultColormap>Grid/Gridded Data</defaultColormap>
            <colorbarLabeling>
                <values>0 10 25 50 100 250</values>
            </colorbarLabeling>
        </imageStyle>
    </styleRule>


The d2dContourStyleRules is similar, but slightly different. You can look at 
the many examples for other products in that file and replicate something 
similar.
