click this ^ for a handy converter

Explanation
There are two main temperature scales. The Fahrenheit Scale (used in the US), and the Celsius Scale (part of the Metric System, used in most other Countries)

They both measure the same thing (temperature!), just using different numbers.

If you freeze water, it measures 0° in Celsius, but 32° in Fahrenheit
If you boil water, it measures 100° in Celsius, but 212° in Fahrenheit
The difference between freezing and boiling is 100° in Celsius, but 180° in Fahrenheit.
Freezing ... to ... Boiling

Coldest I've seen COLT, was last week in Prince George, -28. Heading back there this week but its supposed to be warmer.
Our Southern equipment isn't used to it and was causing us serious headaches. Nothin works on the trailers, I couldn't build air, drove around till I found Freightliner, the brakes were just about to dynamite and I would have been stuck as I pulled in. Then what? Friggin truck decides to spew out the piece of ice obviously clogging something and up went the guages.
Whitehorse is warm right now, warmer than the interior.
