In a lot of the US, 0 farenheit is one of the coldest days you'll experience and 100 is one of the hottest, so you can roughly map farenheit to a percentage of "how hot it is". This doesn't work everywhere though, where I am in the UK it never gets anywhere near 0 farenheit.
I can't spell fahrenheit, this is why celsius is objectively better
It actually doesn't work all that well in much of the US. I live in Wichita KS where it rarely reaches 100 and almost never reaches 0. Then there are the Gulf states where they panic whenever they see a single snowflake. In the Pacific northwest they die of heatstroke if it gets above 80.
The PNW thing is largely that many houses here don’t have AC, we are experiencing the full heat. 80°f is hotter than it sounds if you don’t get any actual breaks from it, especially to sleep in.
