    Fahrenheit has a fine granularity that is lost in cold climates. It’s why the Bahamas/Belize use it as well.

      Well you know that you can use the decimals?

      How is - 40.000001°F more fine than - 40.00000000001°C?

      23°C is a nice room temperature.

      18°C is a bit chilly but still a comfortable temperature.

      If you want to go for a finer destinction then we cann say 18.5°C is warmer but I personally can’t feel the difference.

        Slightly off topic, but 23°C is a nice room temperature? We have our thermostats at 20°C and I find it quite warm. In the sleeping room we have 18°C and so do I have in my office, which I find quite comfortable. I hate visiting my parents, they always have 22.5°C which I find uncomfortably warm.

        Well it’s all subjective after all, I’ll be happy about chilly 23°C inside when summer comes.

        I can feel the difference between 71 and 73 in my house.

        At 73, my kids room is uncomfortably hot. At 71, it has a perfect chill for sleeping.

            I don’t know if my thermostat is just wrong or if the layout of my house makes it inaccurate, but 64-65 in my house is frigid.

            Plus we have a baby so 67-68 is really the lowest we could go at night I think.

            But I agree, I sleep better in general when the blankets are warm and the house is cold!
