Woke up to -35F a few hours ago in Minnesota. All schools and many businesses have been closed this week because of dangerous temps and windchills as low as -65F. Extreme cold is finally moving out. Forecast is high of -2F today. Sunday is expected to be a warm 44F.
I know that -40F is the same as -40C. After that F just gets confusing. C is easy- water freezes at zero and water boils at 100 .... Oh, at sea level...
It was minus 6 here at 7.0am and went up to 2 around midday; now back to -1. Too damn cold for me - but then I have lost loads of muscle and weigh 3 stone less than I did in 2012.
I know what 0 and 100 represent. I can relate to the confusion too. Since I don't use Celsius everyday and can't remember the conversion formula I've resorted to Google to do the work, when I feel like it. Usually this is what I refer to... ...guess I could be courteous and flip the switch on the back to see what it says before posting
