we should not refer to the Centigrade scale as Celsius. Celsius did devise a scale with one hundred units txixt the melting point of ice and the boiling point of water, but on his scale, 100 was the melting point of ice and 0 was the boiling point of water! Another Swede, Linnaeus, better known as the devisor of biological binominal taxonomy, devised the scale with 0 as the colder temperature, so we should we really refer to the Linnaeus scale and °L.

I'm pretty sure it's hotter than Lerwick today, unsure about Rio, Miami et al.
