Ah yes, it's in the 30s. That sounds.... lovely? too warm?

In numerics we have decimal points for that :)
We don't even need that for weather. There's not that much of a difference between 21 and 22 C, and anyway with wind and shade you can quickly have a difference of a few degrees.
That's why weather is not just temperature, regardless of the used scale. But to ask you the same, what's the difference between 110°F and 111°F?
Oh no, I agree with you! I don't understand Farenheit at all. I like Celsius because it makes more sense in terms of definition, and having "negatives can have snow, positives can't" is convenient.
You might think there is no difference, but someone will definitely notice if you adjust the thermostat by 1°F.
I very rarely hear anyone refer to air temperature with a decimal though.
It’s quite common on digital thermostats to have the decimal place for C.
I've never heard anyone casually refer to air temperature either; its mostly always how fast the wind is on the Beaufort scale.
