I smile to myself when I hear my fellow US citizens surprise that there is another way to measure things, and I laugh when the politicians claim metric is too complicated. When the US joined NATO sixty or so years ago the military converted to metric. In army basic training we matched kilometers, not miles, and nobody had problems.
However, cut the guy a little slack. He found this site, with little indication that most people are non-US, and typed what the thermometer said.
By comparison to his hot 80 F/ 26 C, l was riding my bike yesterday in 92 F/ 34 C and was happy that it had cooled off a little. His trees should be real happy.
