Kelvin's for everyone! Lets see 90 F. and 32.2 C. would be 305.2 Kelvin. :lol: :lol:

It should probably be C, since the majority of the world now uses that.

It's kind of funny, in Canada everyone my age uses a mishmash of metric and Imperial measures. the older guys have trouble with metric, and the younger with imperial, but those of us in grade school during the changeover tend to use both.

I still think of distance measures on inches,feet,yards, and miles over metric.But I do the distance conversion from Km to miles effortlessly, probably because my first few vehicles still only had old non-metric speedometers. Weight is still LBS for me, but temperature i think of in Celsius(though I can convert instantly in my head for some reason.) Larger liquid volumes i think of in Litres, but smaller is still cups and oz measures. i attribute this to having to buy gas in Litres rather than gallons.

I remember in the 60's learning the Metric system in school because we were told that was going to be used through out the World. The Metric sys. has been around now over 200 years. On the job we would use both the traditional and the metric system. Seems it is use everywhere for all but in the U.S. it depends on what as to which unit is used.

The UK is like that too. Older people tend to use imperial the younger generation metric, each crossover from one to the other though.

June here in Vermont had high temperatures ranging from 57-82 degrees Fahrenheit and was overcast much of the time. Fenderseeker09...your eye in the sky for Vermont weather.

(May have gotten into the role of meteorologist a wee bit much there... :shock: 8) )

It's been in the high 90's here. I hate it my dog hates it. Too many thunder storms and tornados.

Upper 80's to 90's in Tampa Bay. We're in the middle of a three-year drought, although with over 10 inches of rain this week, you'd never know it.
