Comparing Fahrenheit & Celsius

What is Fahrenheit?

°F

Fahrenheit is a temperature scale where water freezes at 32 degrees and boils at 212 degrees under standard conditions. It is commonly used in the United States for weather and daily temperature readings.

Pro Fact: The scale was developed by Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit in the early 18th century.

What is Celsius?

°C

Celsius is a temperature scale in which 0 degrees represents the freezing point of water and 100 degrees represents the boiling point under standard atmospheric conditions. It is widely used worldwide for everyday measurements.

Did you know? The Celsius scale was originally called centigrade, meaning “divided into 100 degrees.”
