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.

Interesting. Didn't know Australia used metric. For me as someone born with metric, its impossible for me to understand why is hard to get C. 0 is where the water freezes, 100 is where it boils. 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 understand your point but the only time it’s important is when you’re near the freezing temperature. So it doesn’t really matter as long as you know when the water will freeze. 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.

6:00 I actually made a spreadsheet for how to dress for cold weather when I worked the night shift for a job during winter where I'd have to be a few hours outside every shift. 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.

@@jasonreed7522 That implies the numbers were chosen as cutoffs for that reason, but that's not true. You could change where 0 and 100 are and you would be able to apply the same reasoning. In fact, I'd argue you reach the cutoff for being able to tell apart cold temperatures wayy before you get to 0 °F. 100 °F was _never_ intended as human body temp; 100 was never intended to mean anything, even, because Fahrenheit is not a decimally-based scale like Celsius. The human body temp was originally conceptualized by Fahrenheit as 90 °F, then altered to be 96 °F, and then advancements in thermometer accuracy made this number slightly inaccurate.

I joined FIRST robotics in high school, but the combination of being the only girl and being a little bit behind everyone else meant I was usually excluded from actually building the robot and given jobs like making posters or the bumpers for the robot. 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.

If people took 30 minutes to find examples of extremes and mid-points from each scale in their own lives, it would have been very simple regardless of the scale used. For instance, 40 is unbearingly hot in Celcius and 0 is, obviously, freezing. Room temperature is 25. Just these 3 is more than enough in a lot of cases. In the video, the example of "10 degrees" is given. It is right in between room temperature and freezing, so you will want to get your coat. The problem comes from the "compactness" of Celcius. But even if Fahrenheit people argue otherwise, you don't need the difference between 54 F vs. 58 F. No one can tell that difference and it's useless anyway. So Celcius is much easier to learn as you don't have to play with a lot of numbers. 0s are freezing, 10s are cold, 20s are warm, 30s are hot, 40s are scorching hot. What does it matter if it is 23 vs 27 degrees for everyday life?

We use lux or lumen, which is the total amount of light energy that hits a 1 metre square area held 1 meter away from 1 candle. No idea how you do it in American, but I imagine it's probably 16 yards of area held 8 feet away from a donkey with a lantern to give you 6.4 British that are coming.

I'm an American who converted to metric. Let me help you: Figure out what you wear at 0°C. Then, subtract one layer per 10°C. Once you get to zero layers, you start putting layers back on because you've just landed in the middle east, death valley, or the Sahara if you're not on a tropical island.

DUMB GUIDE TO CELSIUS: |-| Non-Weather Guide |-| 0° = Water freezes 40° = You have a fever 50° = Hot shower 70°-90° = Perfect for making tea 100° = Water boils |-| Weather Guide |-| Below 5° = Very cold, you're gonna need gloves and a big jacket and it's probably frozen outside 5°-15° = Pretty cold, ranges from big jacket to just a warm thick shirt 15°-20° = Warm but on the colder side, you can wear a t-shirt if you're resistant to cold but usually a simple sweater is perfect. 20°-25° = Perfect temperature, it's warm and you can wear a t-shirt, if there's sun outside then you're in paradise. 25°-30° = Warm but on the hotter side, you might sweat more easily. This is where people usually go to the pool or beach. Over 30° = It's hot, this is when you go to the beach for half a day and drink tons of water and popsicles. |-| Season guide in Italy but probably basically anywhere in southern/central europe |-| Winter: 10° and under Autumn: 5° to 15° Spring : 15° to 20° Summer : 20 and over

40°C is a pretty heavy fever. 37.5 is already a fever. 50°C shower is really, really hot for me. Like it'll actually be uncomfortably hot and might even be painful. I'm in the Netherlands and to me 0-10°C means it's time for a light winter jacket, maybe wear gloves, but it really depends on how cold the wind is.

I had to look up a converter (I don't use Celcius) but you're going to scald yourself in a shower that hot! It looked off when you talked about 30º being a super hot day (which is where I'm like Sabrina since every weather temperature you listed to me sounds like "bring a coat... or several") but knew that even a hot shower isn't typically over 100º F

I really enjoyed the video, but we could sum it up into: "none of these scales failed you. your educational system did." lol No, but seriously, Celcius is more intuitive for me _becauce_ I grew up getting used to it. 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.

@@Ten_Thousand_Locusts Especially since cups/teaspoons/etc are just names for a metric measurements in metric countries (e.g. 1 cup = 250ml (1/4 litre) rather than America's 1 cup = 240ml). It's very common for people to buy too much or too little of an ingredient when reading recipes online because being told you need 1 litre is much easier to buy for rather than knowing you need 4 cups since liquids at the supermarket don't measure their volume in cups.

I actually get the chart. I Cross-Country Skied throughout high school and our coach actually told us to do a similar thing- write down what layers work the best for us under certain conditions. It was really important for skiing because too cold and you could get hypothermia on a long ski. Too warm and you sweat and end up with the same result.

I grew up with celsius and it makes perfect sense to me. 20 °C (+/-2 depending on if you're warm or cold) is room temp, ~37 °C is body temp/hot tub. 0 is freezing and 100 is boiling. The inbetweens are easier to think of with those reference temps
