It's the first kind of 30ยฐ here today
And it's not wrong when it says that's MUCH COOLER than yesterday
It's pleasant here at the moment. 35/95 and 20% humidity. Small thunderstorm passing through.
30 C isn't that hot.... hell, half of the country is regularly above that for over half the year.
And 30 F isn't really that cold. Throw a hoodie on or maybe a light jacket.
I wish it were 30 F right now. I'm ready for summer to be over.
why are still not using metric?
Fahrenheit is better than Celsius for weather. It's a larger scale that doesn't have to involve decimals.
Celsius is how the temperature feels to water, whereas Fahrenheit is more of how the temperature feels to a human.
But this is basically only true for the temperature ranges seen in weather.

Because retooling is expensive. I applaud the adaptation, but we have a lot of tools written that way. Also, are patents written in English or metric units? Would that invalidate them?

That's why I'm glad I live where I'm more likely to complain about it being -40.
Eh, it's all the same to me
