Beach Trip to Daytona
This past weekend, I spent some time with my family in Daytona Beach (technically Daytona Beach Shores). We all had a good time, but toward the end of the stay the temperatures skyrocketed to nearly 100 degrees (Fahrenheit), with the heat index reaching 110. And about 200 rescues of swimmers caught in strong rip currents were made on Friday and Saturday. So what did I do in the midst of this extreme heat and oceanic peril? Run on the beach and go out into the waves, of course!

So... you don't have to specify, you know. The Celsius-speakers know instantly that it's not that. (And it's pretty clearly not Kelvin, either.)
On the other hand, I was on a bus to MSP airport last November, with an American woman and two Dutch men in the bus too. The woman was complaining that it was so chilly in Minneapolis, and that it was lots warmer back home in Arizona. She asked the Dutch guys about the temperature in the Netherlands. One said that it was "not bad, around 15 degrees." The silly woman was shocked that it was "so cold" there, and it was only November.
