[QUOTE="IWT, post: 1787813, member: 83420"] Hi Charlie, Never considered that the temps would be in anything other than Celsius. I mean 16 F would be jolly cold to say the least - about minus 9C. Looking at the annual weather temps for Las Vegas, the figures are in Celsius which gives me a warm feeling;) Over here, we are "officially" Imperial Units, but in reality mix Imperial and SI according to whom you speak and the season. For example, all our petrol is dispensed in litres, but everyone talks in gallons and refers to miles-per-gallon. Similarly, when it's winter, we (the ordinary folks) tend to talk in degrees C and when it gets warmer, slip into degrees F. Same with inches/feet/yards - most builders, joiners and the like use mm/cms, we oldies use inches and our official longer distance is measured in miles. It's a real mixed bag. And nobody worries and everybody is catered for. Ian [/QUOTE]
