The temperature of water boiling is not a useful metric when it comes to the weather, as it's extremely far outside of where humans can live. Science uses Celcius standard, and that seems to work fine, but I see no reason why we should use it for the weather.
The temperature of ice melting, on the other hand, is hugely important for weather. 0 point is placed at a very important spot as far as weather observations go.
Can't say that of Fahrenheit.
We'll just keep things as they are becuase it seems to be working fine.
Fine except for the Mars Climate Orbiter.
The previous systems also worked fine in other parts of the world, but pretty much every country came to the conclusion that it's simply smart to switch to the metric system, giving up their own with seemingly random conversions.
And those that didn't don't seem to be suffering any ill effects as a result.
I think we can agree that the freezing point is super important when it comes to the weather.
So where would you place the second mark (you have to define two spots) so it "makes sense for the weather" (I don't see how it makes less sense for the weather than Fahrenheit, at least Celsius tells you if it'll snow or not while Fahrenheit tells you nothing) while still making sure that it can easily be recreated?
