What's the Weather like where you live?

[BLEmom]

I’m over trying to research a city I could drive to for sunny 70 degree temps….even Florida will be overcast all this coming week. 
I want remote work so I can leave the country every winter….i need to get warm and there aren’t any good infrared places around here.  😭

70 degrees here and sunny with a few high clouds.

O well… 100 C is boiling temperature…. Unless you mean that strange measurement in F that most countries do not use …. lol 😂😂😂🙈

It warmed up a tad currently 20°

43c expected today 🥵🥵 Last day of low 40c temperatures for a while.

18c and rain .. I am cold ..looking for the jumper 🤣 Maybe I should go outside and dance? 🤣

Some information on temperatures: 

 

Temperature Scales
Very simply, where the Fahrenheit scale is used, such as in the United States, 40 degrees is cold, not far above the freezing point of water. But in Europe, where the Celsius scale is commonly used, 40 degrees registers a temperature that is swelteringly hot. In this article we will only consider these two scales used by the general public. Where did the Fahrenheit and the Celsius temperature scales come from?
In 1714 Gabriel Daniel Fahrenheit, a German physicist, used a mercury thermometer to devise a temperature scale. He determined three fixed points. He wanted the zero point on his scale to be as low as possible. So he mixed ice, water, and a kind of salt, and the temperature of the mixture dropped down to the lowest point he could then obtain. That temperature became 0 degrees on his scale. After that, Fahrenheit selected the temperature of a healthy human body as the upper point on his scale. He set this temperature at 96 degrees. (However, since then the body temperature of a healthy human has been found to be about 2 1/2 degrees higher than what he arbitrarily set.) To obtain the third fixed point, he measured the freezing point of water and found it to be 32 degrees. Later, the scale was applied to the boiling point of water. The temperature turned out to be 212 degrees at sea level, which Fahrenheit later proposed as the upper point on his new scale.
A contemporary of Gabriel Fahrenheit was Anders Celsius, a Swedish astronomer, who lived from 1701 to 1744. In 1742 Celsius devised a temperature scale that is also identified by its inventor’s name. The scale is based on two fixed points: 0 degrees is the freezing point of water, and 100 degrees is the boiling point of water at sea level. Since Celsius divided his thermometer into 100 equal parts, it is also known as the centigrade temperature scale. The Celsius scale is used wherever metric units have become accepted.
Since both the Fahrenheit and Celsius scales are in common use today, it is often necessary to convert from one to the other. How is this done? Well, note that the difference between the boiling point and the freezing point of water on the Fahrenheit scale is 180 degrees (212 degrees minus 32 degrees). But on the Celsius scale, it is 100 degrees. Therefore, the ratio between the two scales is 180/100, or 9/5.
Thus, to change from Fahrenheit to Celsius, first subtract 32 from the Fahrenheit temperature. Then multiply the difference by 5/9. As an example, say the Fahrenheit temperature is a sweltering 104 degrees. To arrive at the Celsius temperature, subtract 32 from 104, which gives 72. Then multiply 72 by 5/9. The result is 40, which is the Celsius temperature. Indeed, 40 degrees Celsius is sweltering!
On the other hand, to change from Celsius to Fahrenheit, you need to multiply the degrees Celsius by 9/5 and then afterward add 32. So, as an example, say the temperature is 20 degrees Celsius. What does that equal on the Fahrenheit scale? Multiplying 20 by 9/5, you get 36. By adding 32 to 36, you arrive at the Fahrenheit temperature of 68 degrees.

26 degrees feels like 14 with wind. 🌬️

It was 30 F midday yesterday, but without the wind.  Hubs is working on installing a wood burning stove.  I’ll be glad when he’s able to complete it. I’d hate to be without heat this time of the year.
