Celsius is obviously better scientifically, but fahrenheit is pretty reasonable for everyday use (unlike other imperial measurements).
minus-square[object Object]@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up12·16 hours agoReally my point is you can memorize new numbers when you look at the weather report. When I go (went ) to the US it was not obvious to me looking at the weather in Fahrenheit what it would feel like.
minus-squareWanderingThoughts@europe.publinkfedilinkarrow-up5·12 hours agoYeah, you just remember 0/20/40 °C close enough to 30/70/100 °F is freezing/good/heat stroke.
minus-squareotter@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up13·16 hours agoOf course. I’m just adding that there is some logic to fahrenheit in day to day use.
