1) Fahrenheit- The standard scale used to measure temperature in the United States. On this scale, the freezing point of water
is 32°F and the boiling point is 212°F. To convert a Celsius temperature to Fahrenheit, multiply it by 9/5 and
then add 32:
°F = (°C * 9/5) + 32
or
2) Fog- Water droplets suspended in the air at the Earth's surface. Fog is often hazardous when the visibility is reduced to ¼ mile or less.
