When to use Fahrenheit?
In the United States, the temperature scale of Fahrenheit is favoured. The Fahrenheit scale as we know it today is based on one proposed by German physicist, Daniel Fahrenheit. The freezing point of water using this temperature scale is 32°F while the boiling point is 212°F. Try out our °F – °C conversion tool.
When to use Celsius?
Degrees Celsius is the most common form of measuring temperature used in thermometers and on the news when telling the weather. Formerly known as degrees centigrade, the Celsius scale comes from the temperature scale proposed by the Swedish astronomer Anders Celsius where 0 signified boiling water and 100 freezing water.
