I'll start. Fahrenheit is the superior temperature system for weather reporting. We should use metric for literally everything else, even Celsius for cooking, but I'll be dead in the cold ground before I abandon a system in which you actually get to experience both 0 degrees and 100 degrees. Freezing being 32 instead of 0 is literally the only downside, and it's not a hard number to remember. I'm prepared to die on this hill in the comments.

    Yeah, like 0F is what minus 20C or something?

    I've literally never experienced that even in the depths of European winter, but 110F is like 45 Degrees which happens like once or twice a year here.

    below 0 is fucked.

    0-10 is cold

    10-20 is jacket weather

    20-30 is the nice zone

    30-40 is warm-hot

    above 40 is fucked.

    It's not that hard people.

      below 0 is ok.

      0-10 is nice

      10-20 is borderline

      20-30 is too hot

      30-40 is making me want to die

      above 40 is The End Times.

      Fixed

      10-20 is jacket weather?? That's 50-67F, for me that's wearing shorts and T-shirts and not sweating every time the sun comes out weather

        Yeah, which is why we have a tired joke every time we hear there's a heatwave in Europe, about how bloody riots have started in London after the temperature hit 25 and a man was seen taking off his suit jacket.

          Damn, if the temperature tops out at 25 (70-something F?) maybe I'll move to London lol

              Rain is better than sun. Sun makes me sweat, even if it's 40 degrees out (like 4 or 5 Celsius)
