It is a good thing I opened this before I went for the pitchfork and torches. Not funny Fan, not not funny.

I thought about it while sitting at the Redhawk game in 90+ degree weather with no wind. I can only imagine how hot it is going to be at 2:30 in the afternoon in a crowded BPS.

How many degrees hotter will it be on the field for the players if the normal air temperature is 32 degrees Celsius?

For those that cannot think, see or feel in metrics, you can convert the above temperature to Fahrenheit with this formula:

Multiply the Celsius temperature by 9
Divide the answer by 5
Add 32

Does anyone do this in real life?

It's a pain in the ass when I'm watching a Discovery Channel show and they are using just metric measurements in their explanations.

We were watching a show the other day about lifeguards on the beach in Australia, and the guy mentioned it 20 degrees and what a great day it was to be on the beach.

My boy did a double take and asked what the heck he was talking about until it finally dawned on him..."Oh yeah, they use celsius over there don't they?" :biggrin:

I cheat, and use an approximation.
Double it and add 30.

25-C = 80-F actually it is 77.
30-C = 90-F actually it is 86, but close enough.
35-C = 100-F actually it is 95, but again, close enough.

It's not exact, but it's quick, and close enough.

To answer your question, it's probably going to between 115 and 125 on the field if it is 100 degrees in the stands.

I think it would be cool if everybody would just wear ORANGE. Everybody. ORANGE !!!!!

This thread is a mess. I can't even tell if it was hijacked or not.

I always use the double and add 30 one. If you want much closer, multiply celsius x 1.8 and add 32. The first way is much easier to do in your head though.

I think as with a vast majority of your tangents, the answer would be, "No."
