Convert Fahrenheit to Celsius instantly with a live calculator, a chart covering ovens and weather, and the manual formula.
Anyone who has moved from the US to Europe or vice versa hits this wall immediately. The thermostat, the oven, the weather app, and even the car dashboard all speak a different temperature language. A US recipe says to bake at 350°F; the European oven dial only shows Celsius. A tourist checks the forecast in Rome and sees 30°C but has no feel for what that means in their own terms.
It matters for practical decisions, too. Understanding that 98.6°F is body temperature (37°C) helps with health, and knowing that 32°F is freezing helps with travel and driving in winter. This page does the exact conversion instantly, and the chart below covers the everyday range from freezing to a hot oven.
Convert 350°F to Celsius (the classic US baking temperature):
| °F | °C | Context | °F | °C | Context |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 32°F | 0°C | Water freezes | 300°F | 149°C | Low oven |
| 50°F | 10°C | Cool day | 325°F | 163°C | Moderate-low |
| 59°F | 15°C | Mild day | 350°F | 177°C | Moderate (bake) |
| 68°F | 20°C | Room temp | 375°F | 191°C | Moderate-high |
| 77°F | 25°C | Warm day | 400°F | 204°C | High (roast) |
| 86°F | 30°C | Hot day | 425°F | 218°C | High |
| 95°F | 35°C | Very hot | 450°F | 232°C | Very high |
| 98.6°F | 37°C | Body temp | 475°F | 246°C | Very high |
| 104°F | 40°C | Heatwave | 500°F | 260°C | Extreme |
| 212°F | 100°C | Water boils | 550°F | 288°C | Pizza oven |
Subtract 32, multiply by 5, divide by 9: C = (F − 32) × 5/9.
(350 − 32) × 5/9 = 176.7°C, usually set as 180°C on a European oven.
98.6°F = 37°C, the normal human body temperature used in medicine worldwide.
Subtract 30 and divide by 2. 72°F → 42 ÷ 2 = 21°C, close to the true 22°C.
