Nowhere on earth are you going to encounter -100" or
temperatures
Do you live in some kind of ice world that also has many
active volcanos?

I'll put this in context since some of our american mates don't get the comment.
The thread was about Celcius vs Fahrenheit and that anon argued that F is better because nowhere on earth you would find temperatures of -100C or 100C. And so, F has a bigger scale (more numbers) to measure things and be more precise.

He didn't realize that numbers can have decimals, so the scale thing is retarded. And, 100C is literally the boiling point for water

I believe Americans are simply too adjusted to living in fairily warm climate compared to most European important states ( **** mediterrian).
So in Europe we find it extremely easy to understand that
0 degrees = it is pretty cold. The water starts to freeze.
-10 you know it's a normal winter.
+10 it is an average autumn/spring.

It seems weird, that in Fahrenheit you have to still have positive value, when it is already really cold outside.
While with Celsius you know +2 - oh, it means spring is here and it is not deadly cold.

Also it seems very natural, that you have your year split in this way approximately:
Jan -10
Feb -5
Mar -2/+2
Apr +5
May +10
June +20
Jul +25
Aug +20
Sept +10
Oct +5
Nov -2/+2
Dec -5
With F you can live through the whole year and have positive values and have no idea whether its cold or not

That's what living along the south-eastern edge of Australia during the tail-end of winter will do to you. It can go to 1 Celsius in the early mornings I know a lot of countries deal with WAY colder but my fragile cold-blooded Australian body struggles with it to 45 Celsius in the summers. At least it isn't as bad as the northern half of Australia where it's disgustingly humid like the Amazonian rainforest.

California has mountain ranges and a desert, though.

Both of which are subject to extreme temperatures, especially in the desert at night vs the desert at day...

Only part of their landmass is close to the coast.

Further inland you CAN get some wild extremes. Which is why parts of Cali are burning and others are drowning.

Especially in a desert... the worst desert in the world isn't located too far away from the ocean. But it experiences climate extremes like no other.

I experience very little of the temperature affects of the coastal regions in my tiny state, and I'm a lot closer to it than people near the boarder between arizona and california.

That's an extreme for a mainland state not close to either pole...

You say it like "just the record cold" but that's pretty damn cold for a mainland state.

We're also talking wind chill here. Not just the actual temperature.

It's true that the other desert states get colder, but... I live in New England, and I've never felt temperatures below -10.

Who knew that Montana would be the second coldest place, though. I did a little research. Maybe your theory holds true further than I thought, but then explain maine at -50

pretty far north i guess. what i meant was coastal places stay about the same temperature. like i mentioned with alaska. anchorage is a coastal city and stays somewhere between 70 and -10 most of the year. fairbanks is a six hour drive north in the middle of the state. because its protected from the clouds which usualy help insulate the area holding the temperature in check it swings much more heavily

Yeah but California isn't all coastal and it extends pretty far north too.

Maine's coldest point (-50) is actually closer to the coast than the inner border of California.

I live not far from the coast, and we go from -10 to 110. Doesn't get too cold, but man lately it's been getting hot.

Also on Cape Cod the wind chills off the sea during the winter can freeze your spit.

Wind chills can be really, really bad.

California does have a diverse range of temperatures.
