This is cute, yes.

Sadly, people are dying from the cold. Some NY landlords always skimp on the heat, and this year its having a lethal effect.

These aren't both true opn any temperature scale I'm aware of.

Indeed.

Someone should tell the Yanks to adopt a temperature system someone outside the US can understand.

I'd say +4 or 5 Celsius here.

Maybe the problem with the Mars Probe is the lack of science education.

Around 20ºC here today, I think.

We've had several days of the temperature being near zero, now thankfully it's back to the regular -10 again (celcius, of course)- I was getting worried for a second.

I've just moved up north and they promised us temperatures of -25 to -30 in january, I bought a parka and thick socks and sweaters and thermal underwear and boots and ****. Haven't used any of it yet.

Why?

Cold is relative. 17 C could be a cold day in Israel.
