how fahrenheit fails you

Become a champion with 3M: bit.ly/3BBsBFs
The Fahrenheit versus Celsius debate has plagued the internet since the start... but what if it misses the whole point? In this video, Sabrina explores the invention of temperature, learns how other meteorological metrics impact how we feel in the heat (or cold), and finally learns how to dress for the weather.

    I'm Australian. We converted most units to metric decades ago. Most of it made things easier and people quickly got a sense for what the units meant for everyday use. But the change from Fahrenheit to Celsius was the most difficult. I found myself constantly converting back to F to get a 'feel' for the forecast weather. That was, until I heard a simple little ditty that made sense of it all. It went: - The cold singles - the cool teens - the temperate twenties - the torrid thirties - the fierce forties. After that I could think easily in C. It's a more poetic version of 'look at the big number".

    It’s been a bit more than a few decades. Over 50 years ago. I was so young at the time I never knew anything other than metric. My only exposure to Fahrenheit was the oven and my mothers 1960’s edition of the Womens Weekly cooking book. Fahrenheit for me is just a US based problem now since the rest of the world uses metric.

Combine that with other general knowledge such as human body has around 36*C, and you can easily understand which temperature is comfortable and which not.

I live in Alaska so my experience is probably similar to yours. I use Fahrenheit. I just know if it’s below 32 it’s icy. Other than that it’s all about previous experience. I like Fahrenheit for the 0 being really cold and 100 being really hot aspect. I like Celsius for chemistry class when I’m dealing with both freezing and boiling liquids.

If I got my drip wrong, it sucked; I would either feel too cold or too hot. I had everything on there, how many layers of pants to wear, how many layers of sweaters, like six different kinds of gloves including mittens, buffs, face masks, hats, socks, it was gnarly. It took a while but I damn near reached perfection. I quickly learned that the "feels like" temperature was more reliable. I had the chart in kelvins, rankines, degrees celsius, and degrees fahrenheit, as well as dozenal, heximal, and decimal.

    Personal opinion: doesn't matter the scale, it ends up being subjective. A person who grew up in tropical weather will shiver at 25 C. A person who grew up in dry heat / cold will complain at the magnification due to humidity (looking at your Toronto and Vietnam). I grew up with Celsius, learned to convert to Fahrenheit due to gaming with Americans and their love of freedom units. Visited relatives in Vietnam who had a completely different scale of hot and cold. Live in Alberta, where we can get snow 12 months of the year (yes, that includes the summer months of May to August) and where weather changes in a literal blink of your eyes. Temperature dropping to 10 C is freezing during summer, but blissfully warm coming out of a freeze of -15 C and below. Temperature systems give us a common vocabulary to complain about the weather. What makes sense is what you grow up with.

    Exactly! Of course your body acclimatises after a couple of weeks in a new climate, but your idea of what number is cold and hot is is entirely based off of your own perceptions growing up. I spent almost two months in the UK in the winter, my body acclimatised after two or three weeks, and after I set the thermostat to 21°C and I felt that as a really hot temperature it baffled me, because I come from tropical Brazil, 21°C would be a "cold" night in my city. From that point forward I consider temperature to be just a number, and I follow my instincts... My hands are currently cold in 26°C weather, but I know sometimes I can endure 14°C in shorts, T-Shirt and flip-flops... And sometimes I don't, so I don't even bother trying too much, I just try dressing based of my previous experiences and if it doesn't work out I'll dress differently the next day.

    A 0 to 100 scale in temperature is just as intuitive as a 0 to 50 scale, especially when talking about temperature, where "cold" and "hot" is incredibly subjective, and the parameters of "minimum" and "maximum" are practically arbitrary. The only reason you might think one is more intuitive than the other is because you're used to it. If you told me "It's 20c outside" I'd know exactly how hot it is and exactly what to wear, because I'm used to it. However, 68f? Literally no idea how hot that is. Add to that the fact celsius is designed to be compatible with the metric system (which is indiscutibaly better than imperial) and the freezing/boiling scale actually makes sense (and IS intuitive), and celsius becomes undisputably better.

I wasn’t learning anything and it really turned me off of the subject. I’ve found another topic which I’m very passionate about, but I couldn’t help but think about the little girl who just really wanted to engineer a robot but nobody was willing to teach her how during the champion portion of the video.

    I come from a very similar background but instead did VEX robotics (FRC isn't very popular in the UK). I joined my robotics club long after everyone else did so I was behind and quite honestly I never caught up. I was mostly the pack donkey tbh though I didn't mind completely as at the end of the day I was there for the people as the club taught me how to socialise. Though I don't necessarily identify as such, there were other girls at the club which was helpful, though I don't think this affected me too much due to my experience of gender. I did have a champion who was my engineering teacher who was basically a man child but had the charisma and networking to keep us motivated and funded. There was also sixth formers that were very helpful. The entire club was all years (11-18yro) so there was a culture of (reluctant) teaching available and cross-year teams. It was an interesting place during it's prime yrs and you could probably write a sitcom about it. It did change after a few years as people left and of course the rona but it did inspire me to pick engineering as a subject for sixth form which has eventually led to me choosing to do Electronic and Electrical Engineering as a degree. I find the differences and similarities of our situations quite interesting tbh.

    I travel a lot and I'm really used to the Celcius scale, I can kind of tell how the weather outside will feel based on humidity and temperature. I guess it really comes down to how much experience you have with the different temperatures, wind, humidity etc, cause after you've experienced a few different temps, you can kinda guess how it'll feel based on the cool little numbers on the weather app

Probably, fahrenheit (which I had to look at the title to know how to write), feels more intuitive to you guys, even though it does not make sense "for the rest of the world". Also, there's a reason why this is called a "uNiVeRsAl SyStEm": most of the world uses it. Excluding temperatures, the rest of the "imperial system" feels like a scam and, imho, should be avoided.

    I was used to F growing up so in order to get an intuitive idea of what Celsius temperatures felt like, I used it exclusively for a year and it was pretty helpful! It was so interesting how 18-19 degrees C was like tolerable just barely need a coat weather and 30 degrees C was summer hot, while I was used to 32 degrees F being snow/winter freezing. At the same time when it got into negative temperatures I was freaked out, but it made more sense that negative was below freezing. I also want to say that I totally agree with the whole champion idea. I found it really difficult to move forward in engineering and though I graduated I left thinking it was something not meant for me. I am still interested, but have no idea how to move forward from where I am now. I would say that my biggest mistake was getting too caught up in the coursework and not making enough connections, not advocating for myself enough and getting real world experience while in school. Struggling with the courses really damaged my confidence even though I do have a natural inclination towards STEM. If I had a champion at that critical time I think I would be in a better place now. If there's any opportunity for me to be a champion in any way, even though I'm not successful in the field right now I would definitely do it!
