I will be controversial and say that I think Fahrenheit makes more sense when talking about the weather. Its scale simply makes more sense on human terms: 0 is fucking cold, 100 is fucking hot. This is about the tempurature range you can expect to experience between winter and summer throughout much of the world.

Celsius makes more sense for cooking (and everything else) since its scale is calibrated around the phase changes of water.

Isn't the freezingpoint of water important for talking about the weather? I want to know when I have to expect snow and ice.
