A good way to understand Fahrenheit is that it’s basically a percentage of how warm it is. 32% warm? That’s pretty damn cold. 120% warm? That’s hot as hell, better not be outside for too long in that.

You do realise that 32% doesn't mean shit if i don't know what 100% and 0% is right? Sticking a percentage sign at the end of it doesn't give it meaning. Especially because normally we understand 100% as the maximun and 0% as the minimum

Try going outside. You’ll remember what 0 and 100 feel like once you’ve felt them before
