Then you look at the temperature and think eh…45 isn’t that bad. We’ll survive. That will be the moment the wind whips up and sleet starts hitting you in the face.

    Celsius definitely makes sense for gauging how you’ll feel at different temperatures if you’re water. Fahrenheit works better for human beings though.

      What? No way dude. 0 and below is freezing temperatures. Negative = cold. 0-10 requires light coat and maybe a beanie. 10-20 is sweater weather. 20-30 is t shirt weather. 30-40 is hot as fuck weather.

        Or a simple scale from 0 - 100. 0 being extremely cold and 100 being extremely hot (from the perspective of a human being)

        I live in a Celsius country and for the thermostat, we have to deal with decimals to fine tune the room temp. Flipped the thermostat to Fahrenheit and it instantly made more sense.

        But you’re still using too-large chunks. Being comfortable requires finer tuning than C degrees, and I don’t like having to use a bunch of decimals or fractions either.

        Edit: I see you like 19.5 which makes my point even though I prefer 72.
