We've got lots of snow falling from the sky right now here in little switzerland. How's the weather where you live, folks?  :)

Some snow on the ground, -2C (28.4 F)<br>Quite clear sky. Jakobstad, Finland.

Clear, sunny, and around 50F<br>Here in little ole Rhode Island USA

About 32 degrees F in the land of Apples - Camas, WA - Home of the Papermakers (Georgia Pacific Formerly James River formerly Fort James formerly Crown Zellerbach)

Los Angeles - It was cold last night the morning was too hot to handle, now it's cold again.

it was cold but the last couple of days the suns been out a lot.<br><br>hope its warm next summer.<br><br>*dreams of sweaty library girl*

Sunny, windy, 50 degrees in good ol New York, NY.

70 degrees in Birmingham, AL, USA.

meh! [not new]

78F with a 5mph wind in yucca valley, ca, usa.

why do people even bother using farenheit? its ridiculous. everyone knows celsius (or better, kelvins) are the true measurement of temperature.

Yup, Kelvin and Celsius are the ways to go.<br>What is Fahrenheit based on anyway???, I mean Celsius has 0 when water freeze and 100 when it boils. Kelvin has 0 at the lowest temperature possible.

I agree farenheit is retarted and so is the amercian standard system of measurement. But its not like im going to do the math to convert it to celcius when the thermometer is in farenheit. I really think kelvins should be the norm.

RICoder, it's not in the 50s up here! I'm in east central Massachusetts (just outside of Worchester, properly, or natively, pronounced "woosta"), where's it's in the higher 30s to low 40s! It's supposed to get to 25F on Sunday too. Also, I am all for the metric system, I only use it, except on temperature, I like F because there's more degrees in it, so it's more accurate. Instead of as in C, the temps are from -10C - 30C, whereas in F it would be like -20F - 100F. But I do use cm, m, and mm ALL the time, stupid inches and feet!<br><br>Stefan, that's so sweet that you live in die Schweiz (la Suisse, and Switzerland for you English-only people ). I'd LOVE to live in Switzerland after college, I see Switzerland as the center of the world, because it's super strong (economy is better than the US's) and it's right in the middle of everything! Germany, France, Italy, Austria, and Leichenstein all border it! I'd love to live somewhere between Geneva (Genève) and Bern ;D . It's also a super peaceful country. I still do find it hard to believe that Switzerland didn't become territory of Germany during WWI or WWII! And didn't even get involved in the wars. Offically, was Switzerland on the Allies or Axis? I would think Allies, but I don't know. It would be sweet if you could tell me some stuff about Switzerland; actually, I'm doing a really big project on Switzerland for French class at school right now, so any information would be extremely helpful! Thanks!<br>

I feel honored...  :)<br><br>Oh and about this Fahrenheit thing: I believe there was this englishman callad fahrenheit and he wanted to introduce his own temperature-scale. and as zero he took the coldest he had ever heard about... some -17 oder -15°C. Well... he was from britain so I guess he never had the pleasure to go through a really cold winter.
