I don't science anymore, but living in a F country, I keep in mind for conversions:

0C is freezing point of water ~32F 20-22C is room temp ~68-72F 30C+ is Unhappy temperatures/hot.

Really only things I need to remember, and gradient based off of. It can get up to 45C where I live, but that would never be important to me. I hate the heat, if it's 30C+, the degree to which it is hot matters little, I'm going to just want to stay out of the sun or go inside.

A F country? You can just say the US, I doubt it'd be Cayman Islands or Liberia lol.

Here 70F is perfect weather. For reference we set our a/c at 68 at night and it's literally freezing cold if you walk though in your underwear. Any hotter and you'll need to start dressing in lighter stuff. Any colder and you might wanna wear a flannel. Hell my house stays at 72 all day and it's perfect.
