Answer 1

Right now it is only 16c in the middle of summer.

That's right Ian but................ be careful!

It has been reported that temperatures are set to soar towards the end of the week.

Some sources predict it will hit 19 degrees in London! (66 Fahrenheit)

Don't worry though. I'm prepared

Answer 3

Highest ever temp in England

38.5°C 10 August 2003

One advantage for putting up with the grey days we often have.

Right now it is only 16c in the middle of summer.

Answer 4

117 degrees Farenheit, is pretty close to what it gets to be in Death Valley CA.

In the Mojave Desert, Barstow, Yermo, Victorville, etc it gets up to about 115 or so degrees and stays that way for days.

The hottest temperature ever anywhere world wide was in Death Valley.

Furnace creek , aptly named mate. - ray76, Aug 8, 2017

In the UK we used both for a long time after converting to metric. - ian-hill, Aug 8, 2017

Majority of the world uses Celsius. While, the United States and its unincorporated territories uses Fahrenheit. - NKM1974, Aug 8, 2017

The US "tried" to convert to the metric system about 40 years ago and it was an utter failure. - Echoline, Aug 8, 2017
