FAQ

−40 degrees is the same in both Celsius and Fahrenheit. This is the only point where the two scales intersect.
Absolute zero (0 K, −273.15°C, −459.67°F) is the lowest possible temperature where all molecular motion stops. It is the starting point of the Kelvin scale.

Quick Tip

A quick mental shortcut: to roughly convert °C to °F, double the Celsius value and add 30.
