  • The fixed points (for 0 and 100) are much more logical though and can be used to accurately recreate the scale anywhere (well… it’ll be slightly off on higher altitude since boiling temperature changes but it’s still not far off).

    0°C = water freezes (= it’s snowing)

    100°C = water boils

    meanwhile:

    0°F = the coldest night Mr Fahrenheit experienced, thinking it couldn’t get any colder than that

    100°F = Mr Fahrenheit’s own body temperature (he had a slight fever apparently)

    How would you recreate that??
