Default Freaking cold

For gov't work I simply double the Celsius temperature and subtract 30.

Example...It was minus 17 when the wife took our Springer Spaniel out at 0645 hrs.
So...-17 x 2 = -34 less 30 equals minus 4 F

Wayne's calculator says 1.4F

The more extreme the temperature, the less accurate the 'off the cuff system is.
