Is 20 Degrees Celcius a Good Thing?

The answer is yes if you like warm weather as 20°C is 72°F.

Now it will take a while for you to wrap your head around the temperature differences.  Officially the conversion is:
°F = °C  x (9/5) + 32.2

Or you can just multiply the temp in Celcius by 2 and then add 32.  It's not as accurate but gives you a general idea of how warm or cold it is outside.

Of you could just start to refuse to look at the news and always take a jacket and umbrella with you whenever you leave the house.  Trust me, you'll need it even if the forecast says sunny and 30°C.  But we'll save any discussion (read: moans) about British weather for another day.

  1. I remember that you can reverse 16 and 28 in Celsius to get the degrees in Fahrenheit (16 = 61, 28 = 82) and try to estimate the rest from there!
