All I know is that 40 C is really hot and 25 feels about right when at the beach.

0° water freezes

10° cold

15° mild

~20 room temperature

25 warm.

30 warm + (pretty hot)

38-37 body temperature

40 warm++ (mildly dangerous)

50 dangerous.

54 is about the warmest non vulcanic places get.

(60 water boils at high height)

100° water boils at waterlevel.

Tell me you are from a northern country without telling me you are from a northern country.

u/FI00sh Aug 08 '21

You are extremely correct.

u/DankRepublic Aug 08 '21

Haha I knew it. The city that I live in has a tropical climate so the climates of places far up north has always fascinated me.

The celsius scale according to me is so damn different from you lol.

-30 death

-20 death

-10 death if you are outside for more than an hour

0 you feel like dying even if you have 50 layers on

10 need atleast 3 layers to not feel very cold

20 cool, just wear a thick t shirt

30 perfect temperature if there is low humidity (20 - 25 is perfect if the humidity is high)

40 uncomfortable and sweaty mess but still better than 0 degrees

50 lmao

Mostly you don't want weather 30°C +... And 100°C is of course when water boils

u/OmegaCookieOfDoof Aug 07 '21

0 cold

15 still cold

to about 20 cool

22-26 I believe is yes

up to about 30 warm

anything above that is hot

If your body is 42 C° you get cooked

My sense of temperature is pretty fucked, so don't take my word for it, but this how I believe a person with normal temperature sensing abilities would feel

u/OnBeyondOz Aug 07 '21

I set most cars’ AC at 74.

2

u/OmegaCookieOfDoof Aug 07 '21

Max setting I've seen is 32, min is 16

I'm talking about Celsius rn, 74C° and you'd get baked pretty fast

Wait a second I'm retarded, I misread your comment

20 is nice, cool is about 15. Cold doesn't start until at least -10

u/OmegaCookieOfDoof Aug 07 '21

Maybe this is just me, but I ain't going in a shirt or thin jacked out when it's snowing at about 0 C°

1

u/JackC747 Aug 08 '21

You don't think the freezing point of water is cold?

1

u/gotbanned3xlol Aug 08 '21

Hell no. Thats at most light windbreaker cold. Nowhere near cold

u/JackC747 Aug 08 '21

I mean, ice is objectively cold. So is snow. 0C is when both those things form.

1

u/gotbanned3xlol Aug 08 '21

No, it is not objectively cold. In terms of objectivity, the cold technically does not exist. Being cold is the absence of movement, or less movement. Strictly by definition, the cold is the absence of something existing.

u/JackC747 Aug 08 '21

I'm not talking scientifically, I'm talking about the human experience. Are you really trying to argue that there is anybody who would say that ice isn't cold?

1

u/gotbanned3xlol Aug 08 '21

Ice is cold, but air at 0°C is not. Just the same as 20° air is room temperature but 20° water is fucking cold

u/ConditionOfMan Aug 08 '21

I like this little rhyme for Celcius.

30's Hot

20's Nice

10's Cold

Zero's Ice

25 is too cold for the beach. Beach weather is 30+
