    35 °C = 95 °F
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    His eminence is correct!! ...... it's way too damn hot when most of the time cool air currents from the Pacific ocean moderates the hell out of possible wacky temperatures!

    Encrypt everything. Even if you have nothing to hide. It increases the noise floor.

    C is so confusing.... 35 is 95 but 30 is 86...

    silly C

    if that 95 was a dry 95 then I must say Not bad at all.... 95 and dry is better then 86 and humid.

    Simple linear relationship. F = 1.8C + 32 where C is the temp in centigrade.
