looks like paid do gooders are becoming more of a menace there----certainly here under your circumstances the government offer counselling for those who need it, they also offer money for personnel losses albeit small---also they get the insurance companies to work straightaway.
really like the last picture, pine and snow

HERE IS THE ANSWER TO YOUR QUESTION

Fahrenheit (symbol °F) is a temperature scale based on one proposed in 1724 by the physicist Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit (1686–1736), after whom the scale is named.[1] On Fahrenheit's original scale the lower defining point was the lowest temperature to which he could reproducibly cool brine (defining 0 degrees), while the highest was that of the average human core body temperature (defining 100 degrees). There exist several stories on the exact original definition of his scale, however, and some of the specifics have been lost and exaggerated with time. The scale is now usually defined by two fixed points: the temperature at which water freezes into ice is defined as 32 degrees, and the boiling point of water is defined to be 212 degrees, a 180 degree separation, as defined at sea level and standard atmospheric pressure.

By the end of the 20th century, most countries used the Celsius scale rather than the Fahrenheit scale. Fahrenheit remains the official scale for the following countries: the Bahamas,[2] Belize,[3] the Cayman Islands,[4] Palau,[citation needed] and the United States and associated territories (Puerto Rico, Guam and the U.S. Virgin Islands). Canada retains it as a supplementary scale that can be used alongside Celsius.[5][6][7][8]

The Rankine temperature scale was based upon the Fahrenheit temperature scale, with its zero representing absolute zero instead.
