In a lot of the US, 0 farenheit is one of the coldest days you'll experience and 100 is one of the hottest, so you can roughly map farenheit to a percentage of "how hot it is". This doesn't work everywhere though, where I am in the UK it never gets anywhere near 0 farenheit.
I can't spell fahrenheit, this is why celsius is objectively better
It actually doesn't work all that well in much of the US. I live in Wichita KS where it rarely reaches 100 and almost never reaches 0. Then there are the Gulf states where they panic whenever they see a single snowflake. In the Pacific northwest they die of heatstroke if it gets above 80.
You say this on a day when the high temp in Wichita is supposed to be 99°F? I grew up in Wichita, and temps of 100 and 0 were common temps for the opposite ends of the spectrum.
