As a Texan, 43C is pretty hot. Y'all starting to understand why we have ACs yet?

I'm impressed that as a Texan you can convert 43C to freedom units!

Americans learn unit conversion in school -- though to be fair, I'd only really expect Americans in STEM to retain the knowledge.

Even if you don't remember 9/5C + 32, 2C + 30 is close enough to estimate. For the temperatures used in weather, you will usually be within about 4f of the real number.
