US here. I wish we’d switch to metric. It makes so much sense.

The degree of variability describing temps in Celsius makes me cringe.

If we had to stick with imperial to avoid your goofy temps, I’d have a tough decision to make.

I don’t know what you mean by that.

They mean it’s not as precise or relatable as farenheit for talking about the weather. Like in farenheit 0 is cold and 100 is hot. Also more precise from one degree to the next. I just assumed that’s what they mean from reading this topic many times before, but I don’t agree with it, I can kind of understand, but the relatable part is just based on what you’re used to, and the precision is moot, you can go after the decimal point in Celsius if you need further precision, which you really don’t when talking about the weather anyway.

I love Celsius for scientific means.

I love Fahrenheit for outdoor temps at a glance. Below 0 and above 100 are the areas where you could die from being outside too long unprepared.

In Celsius it’s … below -17 and above 37… wat

That’s kind of arbitrary though, and very dependent on humidity.
