    Here’s a rough C° primer for Americans

    0° or below, fucking cold

    1° - 10° cold

    11° - 20° cool

    21° - 30° warm

    31° - 40° hot

    41° or above - Jesus Christ I’m on fire!

    As for Fahrenheit for the rest of the world, on a scale from 0 to 100, how hot is it? Assume anything below zero is really fucking cold, and anything above 100 is really fucking hot.

      Yup. Where I live we have seen down to -20F (during that time texas almost lost their power grid) and up to 115F.

      Its currently 110F. Aka, hot.

      Or, -28c to 46C. Currently 43C. And 40% humidity. Feels horrible.

      I was in Dubai earlier this year and the heat index was 53⁰C. Felt like I was being baked alive.

      I get metric for everything else, but °F is the better system for everyday/non scientific use. I will die on this hill.

        That’s because Fahrenheit is % of hot, based on what we feel. Therefore, °F is better for everyday use.

          The one you use is the better system. I want to know whether I should bring a sweater. The system is arbitrary.

          In what way is 0F helpful at all?
