I don't understand these 'F' units you quote for temperature. Give me 'C' or even Kelvin 'K', I know where I am with those.

It's odd - I'm as pro-metrication and SI units as anyone, but I still find it easier to judge how warm the weather is by Fahrenheit rather than Celsius. I think it goes back to my childhood years in warmer climes.
I too (being a Scientist) use the metric system and SI units. There are however exceptions -
I think of my height in feet and inches, my weight in stones, speed in MPH and fuel economy in miles per gallon. I cannot however get my head around Fahrenheit. If someone mentions it, I have to do a quick calculation to have any idea what it means (C to F = double it and add 32, F to C = subtract 32 and halve it). I think I know the freezing point of water in Fahrenheit (32F), but I haven't a clue as to what waters boiling point would be. So simple in Celsius 0C and 100C respectively.
There is one thing that I like about Kilometres - they go by a lot quicker!

100F down in Cambridge ( that's 38C, Mr Farnell ) - it's the hottest place I can see on Windy at the moment. Is Cambridge going to hold on to the record from 2019 ?
10:15pm here in Cambridgeshire and it's still 30C (86F in old fangled units) with 50% humidity. I've got windows open, but the air coming in is no cooler. Why does it always seem to get warmer/more humid in the evenings during hot weather?

I see that, at least in London, it has cooled off a bit due to some rain. Not too bad here but heading for several days over 90F. Still far better than parts of the US and Europe. Oh, apologies for using old fangled units instead of centipedes! But I figure you can convert. After all, I grew up having to do arithmetic with £, S, D long before decimalization.
