Degrees is the only time I don't agree with the metric system, because I like Fahrenheit for weather measurement. Celsius is convenient for doing math, but the broader scale of Fahrenheit is useful because there's noticeable a difference between 78 degrees and 79 degrees. The major points are silly, like freezing being 32 instead of 0, and boiling being 212 instead of some even number, but the scaling is right. Especially having lived in a desert half my life, where the temp might shift from one extreme to the other in the course of a day, it's good to have that wider scale.
