minus-squarecabbagee@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 year agoCause 30C is warm but 39C is heat stroke. Bigger range than 80-89F (warm to really warm), 90-99F (hot to really hot), 100F+ (heat stroke hot).
minus-squaremacniel@feddit.delinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 year agoIn numerics we have decimal points for that :)
minus-squareSekoia@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 year agoWe don’t even need that for weather. There’s not that much of a difference between 21 and 22 C, and anyway with wind and shade you can quickly have a difference of a few degrees.
minus-squaremacniel@feddit.delinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 year agoThat’s why weather is not just temperature, regardless of the used scale. But to ask you the same, what’s the difference between 110°F and 111°F?
minus-squareDontMakeItTim@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoYou might think there is no difference, but someone will definitely notice if you adjust the thermostat by 1°F.
minus-squareshottymcb@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 year agoI very rarely hear anyone refer to air temperature with a decimal though.
minus-squareDontMakeItTim@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·1 year agoIt’s quite common on digital thermostats to have the decimal place for C.
