Yes... and so when it's going to be in the "teens" in centigrade, they tell you how many damn degrees they think it's going to be, rather than dicking you about by giving you a needlessly large range.
I bet the weather forecasters in America never tell you the temperature is going to be "positive, and in 2 digits".
Whatever next? Difficulty knowing how far away things are because miles are so large compared to km?
- mattkrause 10y agoThey don't do that in the US. On the other hand, in Canada, they do say "temperatures will be in the teens this morning" all the time on the radio without elaborating further. But...since you brought it up, I also find it's much easier to get in the appropriate lane when the exits (etc) are indicated one mile in advance (~1 minute driving time) than 1 km (~30 seconds). 2km warning would be fine too, but since it's not a round number, they tend not to be signed that way....
