- darrenf 9y ago25°c is 77°f, not 45.
- CardenB 9y agoyeah this is referring to how high it is above normal, not actually 25 degrees celsius. there was a delta of 45 deg Fahrenheit.
- nanodeath 9y agoKinda...but you want 77 - 32 (which is 45).
- STRML 9y agoThat's not how converting relative Celsius to Fahrenheit works. If I say "it's 10 degrees Celsius colder today than yesterday", that's the same as saying "it's 18 degress Fahrenheit today".

- darrenf 9y agoOops oops yes, mea culpa. Note to self: avoid (posting to) HN after a few drinks. Thanks to all those who corrected me.
- netsharc 9y agoREDACTED: No.. not oops. He's wrong, you're right. Ah why did you reply to your own comment instead of pressing edit. I thought you were the grandparent poster replying to the correction. God damnit.
- pharrington 9y agoThe "+32" in the conversion from Celsius measures to Fahrenheit measures is to account for the base offset differences in the absolute measures.
- raverbashing 9y agoIt's a temperature difference, not an absolute temperature 25deltaC = 45deltaF (just multiply by 1.8 for delta C to F)
