• Thank you, this is a a great idea! I’ve found these common temperatures online, in case anyone wants to learn them:

    Absolute Zero -273.15 -459.67
    Freezing Point of Water (at sea level) 0 32
    Average Room Temperature 20-22 68-72
    Body Temperature 37 98.6
    Average Summer Day 25-30 77-86
    Heat of a Desert 40-50 104-122
    Boiling Point of Water (at sea level) 100 212

      Average Summer Day 25-30 77-86

      See, that’s the problem with these “Fahrenheit is more intuitive” arguments. They are catered to a very specific country with a very specific climate. For me, 25-30 ºC is an average late spring day.

      • It’s intuitive to those who grew up using it. For me, Celsius is much more intuitive because people around me used it all my life and refer to common temperatures in Celsius.

        So I think intuitiveness is very subjective and not a good criterion to judge a unit by.
