Fahrenheit seems to be a good scale for weather. It would be a pretty simple matter to make a human friendly scale based on Celsius - halve the unit. Freezing is zero degrees, and boiling is 200 degrees. I call this unit Celinheit:
Here's how that looks when compared with Fahrenheit:
0F == -35 Ch
10F == -24 Ch
20F == -13 Ch
32F == 0 Ch
40F == 9 Ch
50F == 20 Ch
60F == 32 Ch
70F == 42 Ch
80F == 53 Ch
90F == 64 Ch
100F == 76 Ch
110F == 86 Ch
The advantages of this system:
* 40-60 would be considered about ideal.
* Each 10 degree "band" has a feeling, similar to Fahrenheit.
* Converting to metric would be really easy.
Disadvantages:

Why is it worse than some other range? > * Each 10 degree "band" has a feeling, similar to Fahrenheit. As a user of the celsius scale, each 10 degree "band" already has a feeling to me.
