It's easy to convert though. (212-32)/100 = 1.8. So you multiply your temperature in C by 1.8, and then add 32, and you have your temperature in Fahrenheit. So if it's 30C out, (30*1.8) +32 = 86F.
It is, admittedly, easier to convert centimeters to inches; that conversion is exactly 2.54cm/in.
You don't need to do a conversion, you can just learn them intuitively. 0 is dangerously cold, 10 is cold, 20 is comfortable, 30 is hot, 40 is dangerously hot.
That's the joke...?
I wouldn't say that 0C is dangerous cold. For me, that's more like -20C, and -30C is really quite unpleasant.
it depends on the cloth you have
I live in a very warm country
I literally don't have clothes that I could use if the temperature got negative
A lot of it is individual adaptation. People in colder climates may wear clothing very similar to people in warmer climates, but are just used to the colder temperatures. Someone from a colder country would probably end up getting heat stroke in your country while wearing the same clothing as you.
Under 20c is cold, 32c is ideal and 42c+ is not.
Whoah there, 20c° is shorts weather, let’s not get carried away. In winter, it’s a comfy setting for the thermostat (speaking from New England). If it were 32c°, I’m sitting inside in air conditioning
20c is pants and jacket time! 32c is the high everyday. It's just normal and certainly not hot.
30c is the perfect temperature. It's not hot it's nice. 40c is fine if you drink water and use shade. It's like saying 5c is dangerous bc it can kill you if you don't wear a jacket.
30c + 90% humidity of Brisbane disagrees.
0 is when snow turns to ice, so slipping becomes a thing to be aware of. But more like -5 to -10 degrees since direct sunlight tends to melt it. It's not really that cold unless you're sitting naked outside.
Ok, Buddy.
2.54cm is easier for me because I do
2.04x + ½x.8 inches?
16.32 + 4 = 20.3212?
24.48 + 6 = 30.4830?
61.20 + 15 = 76.2060?
122.40 + 30 = 152.40I don't know why, but I find this easier. Maybe because it's 4x, 2x, and ½ and my brain doesn't like adding 32 and working in 1.8.
