    I just think of it like this. 0 is fucking cold, 100 is fucking hot. It’s the easiest for me to describe comfort levels according to temperature.

    72 is room temperature, so anything above, it’s time to start taking clothes off. Anything below it’s time to start putting more on.

    32 is around about where water freezes so if it gets close to that, time to make sure pipes are wrapped and plants are inside. Only really have to worry about that one time a year though.

      In metric you just look at the first digit:

      0x is cold

      1x is light jacket

      2x is shorts weather

      3x is hot

      one time a year though.

      One time… Like late November to early March.

        I only have to worry about the change once a year as far as major things go. Which is what I was alluding to.

        Comfort levels? I usually wear a hoodie with 1-2 layers down to 32, then my coat for everything below that with layers added the colder it gets.

        I live in Michigan so the transition seasons are a crap-shoot on what you’ll need to wear that day anyways so I have to keep clothes in my car either way temperature is measured.
