    I have noticed that people, especialy people from the United States have trouble converting Celcius to F (Whatever that is). As a resident of Canada I will in stead of writing down the usual fractionals and number jobbies that are ignored by most, and the usual head nodding and aha-ing done by most in these situations, I will give you some useful information: 15C - cold if you are inside - outside it is actually fairly warm - weird, eh? 10C - Chilly 5C - Time for a sweater - or if you are a wimp - a jacket. Same temperature as your fridge. 0C - Freezing point of water and ice cubes? -5C - OK a little cold but now I can wear my jacket and not be called a girly man -10C - this is officially cold -15C - frostbite area - if there is a stiff wind look out. -20C - need to have a few beers to venture out in this -25C - medically dangerous - but alcohol has a much lower freezing point and so can again be used. -30C - beer starts to be less effective - start using rum or whiskey. -35C - Ski masks are mandatory - if you rob a liquor store with one on the cops will privately praise your ability to jump on the freezing cold late model car seats - as such a very rare occurance -40C - Too cold for most sober humans - hobos start to freeze to the pavement and park benches. Stay indoors until the ice starts to melt. -50C and below - mostly endured by polar scientists and ice dippers (who are clinically insane). ... anything below that is mostly the work of chronic liars and people who work with liquid nitrogen.

      15C (59F) is warm inside and out. It usually has to get about 45F or below until I get cold.

        People who work with liquid nitrogen are careful to NEVER endure the temperature. We have special gloves and equipment to draw the liquid without ever experiencing it. So that leaves polar scientists and the clinically insane. :-D
