how to “get” fahrenheit temps
think of it as a percentage of heat
40% hot? eh, kind of on the chilly side
75% hot? that’s pretty warm now
20% hot? that’s actually not warm at all
110% hot? we’re dying
IT ALL MAKES SENSE NOW
Fun fact: the Fahrenheit scale is used in temperature according to how it feels to a human. So looking at in percents actually is what you should do
Now can I get a cheat sheet for Celsius
Ask water how hot it feels.
My cheat sheet for Celsius is a rhyme I saw somewhere, possibly a guide for visitors coming to an event in Toronto:
30 is steamy,
20 is nice,
10 put a sweater on,
Zero is ice.
(I have been told “And 40 only happens in Australia” is an acceptable extension of the rhyme.)
