The Weather Where You Live

LOL. I cringed. Fahrenheit is a very old and deprecated system. All of the world moved to °C and the reason America didn't is because they made a mistake to not believe °C will substitute it. It did. And now – it's too late. Many Americans will never acclimatise to the change so they let it stay.

Fahrenheit is a stupid measurement system. By Fahrenheit, water freezes at 32 degrees, and water boils at 212. These are not round numbers but quite difficult to remember on the contrary.

With Celsius:

Water freezes at 0°C.
And water boils at 100°C.
Iraq is 40°C.
Greece is 35°C.
Bulgaria is 30°C.
These during summer time.
And Sweden is almost always 10°C.
England is 20°C.

Anyone who says 32–212 is easier to remember and understand than 0–100 has some serious mental disabilities. I'm sorry. I really do. I'm speaking truth here.

And I respect Americans. Most of my friends are Americans and they started using our measurements. It's just so much easier to grasp.

 

Metric is a product of Napoleonic Oppression.
Metric is nice for Science.
But Real Life - No!
How many items in a Metric Dozen?

This is an place.
Speak and measure in the Lord's units of measurement please.
Out of respect.


How about Metric Time?
Do you wear a watch that measures the passing of time in ten units per day?
How about a Metric Calendar.
10 day weeks etc.
Save metric for science.
the Lord's Units for Daily Life.


Moi

How about in units of traitorous s


No Metric.
No ​

 

Napoleonic... OK. Then ban Volkswagen in the US. Hitler created it after all. And tesla created the electricity. He was a Serbian. I guess Albanians must ban electricity in Tirana, if following your lead.

Metric is nice for Science.
But Real Life - No!

Right. We all don't prefer round and simple numbers.

 

You don't like a dozen.
How about a Baker's Dozen?


Tesla was
and got the world on the right track to electrify. AC!
Edison invested in DC.

Werner von Braun, another great
give it to 0:30 for the good part



How you want it?
And greatness rests with our preserving the Lord's measurement units in daily life.

 

the reason they don't use celsius in america is because it would make them 'feel' cold...

 

Why is it important to have common temperatures fall between 0 and 100? They do teach you negative numbers and numbers higher than 100 at school, right?

The beauty of Celsius is that it is based on states of water, and plenty of things you deal with in daily life are basically water. Food? Want it frozen – keep it below zero, want it fresh – keep it above zero. Weather? If it's below zero, it will snow, if it's above zero, it will rain. 0C being the border between ice and liquid water is what makes in convenient. I know it's cute to have 100F as the standard body temperature, but measuring body temperature is hardly a part of everyday life, unless you are a medic or something.

 

We got about 4 inches of rain, temperatures at about 60 degrees, and a tornado warning. The tornado did damage to a school about 8 miles away.

 

Moi's side of the family was the first to own a VW
circa 1965.
That was 20 years later and still my favorite uncle who was on the Battleship Nevada that December 7th, disproved because of Hitler Germany.

That is a personal choice.

If it were a National Choice you may be denied your Apple product

No Apple

Poor @old timer probably died back in 2013.

 

As usual, in its elliptic orbit about the Sun, the Earth is exposing its northern hemisphere to less sunlight while the southern gets more.

Now it's autumn in the northern and springtime in the southern hemispheres.

Here in the north, the days are getting shorter and cooler, and the nights are getting cold.

I love this time of year. Harvest time. Hunting season. No more a/c. Fire up the furnaces.

 

I broke out from my storage room my space heater and tried it out.

It failed.

So I went to Walmart and got a new one.

It works nicely. It's warm.

 

When the last Mexican hurricane blew past we got soaked in rain for 4 days with snow in the mountains. There is a foot of snow up there now.

 

South Texas, almost November, still hot, but the very next day it drops to 50°, and you start digging out hoodies and coats.

 

Would rather be in sunny florida!

 

Dallas, Texas at 5:00pm on 11/29/18:

75F and 24C. Clear blue skies.

 

23:31 middle of UK, pitch black, 9C you bastard

 

We pay for it in August when we’re like Dubai.

 

But with cold beer

 

Simply lovely today...Sunny mild breeze and 68 degrees..Snow Monday... Son of a....

 

Bah Humbug

 

Last week in Melbourne Australia, we had some near 40 degree (Celcius) heat, with hot winds, and now it's dropped dramatically and rained a bit overnight, these sudden rises or drops in temp are a killer, our bones feel the pain!
Today is a pleasant mild sunny day, our outside temperature guage shows a perfect 25c
We are in our first month of Summer now (Dec to Feb).

 

Less snow, a little warmer in Denver. But we are halfway to Mexico from you!

 

32 celcius. Very high humidity.

DISGUSTING

 

Currently 24 deg Celsius at 8 pm on the Gold Coast Queensland. (It was hot in Melbourne today also!) I just got up to Qld today! Not fir holiday, work related.

 

A white Christmas sounds unlikely!
