    This is exactly how I feel when my American colleagues discuss the weather in Fahrenheit.

      Fahrenheit is, surprisingly, somewhat intuitive in the very specific case of weather.

      Not that it never goes beyond the extremes of the scale, but very broadly speaking, 0-100 F is your weather range, with 0F being cold as balls and 100F being hot as balls.

      The balls scale of weather temperature is significantly less intuitive.

        Only in america, though. The rest of the world has a more diverse climate and it actually gets proper hot and cold here.
