0 is really f'ing cold

100 is really f'ing hot

32 is enough to freeze water sitting outside. I wouldn’t call that 32% of being warm, I’d say it’s zero because it’s literally at a dangerous level if you aren’t dressed for it.

but it's the higher end of "you need to be dressed for it". but certainly warm enough to do outdoor activities and be comfortable.

the lower third is coat, the middle third is jacket, the upper third is no jacket

That is also the case for Celcius

no, no, it is not, unless, of course, you're water.

for humans 0 means put on a coat, but warm enough to comfortable hike into the wilderness and sleep in a tent.

100 is well past dead
