Scales

Can you tell the difference between 80°F and 81°F?  Yeah neither can I.  Anything above 95°F is just hot.  Same thing below 0°F, that’s bitterly cold.  Does it matter how far below zero the temps go?  How can you have a negative temperature?  Okay, I don’t want to go down that road.
 
Having accurate temperatures and records is important so I guess we need to keep the Fahrenheit and Celsius scales.  But let me recommend a new temperature gauge.

Anything below 0°F:         inescapable cold
0°-15°F:                          running cold:  run between building and cars quickly
16°-40°F:                        Winter normal:  manageable with lots of hot chocolate
41°-60°F:                        Spring and Fall normal:  starting to get comfortable
61°-85°F:                        Summer ahhs:  perfect temps
86°-95°F:                       +humidity = uncomfortable
95°F and above:               inescapable heat

It makes the temperature more descriptive doesn’t it?  Whatever temperature you are in, enjoy it.

Pack out what you pack in.
