What 10 °F means
- 10 °F is 22 °F below the freezing point of water (0 °C, 32 °F).
- 10 °F is 88.6 °F below the generally accepted average normal body temperature (37 °C, 98.6 °F).
- 10 °F is 202 °F below the boiling point of water at sea level, rounded to 100 °C (212 °F).
- In wind, 10 °F feels colder. Use the wind chill calculator to see how cold.
How to convert
- Subtract 32: 10 − 32 = −22.
- Multiply by 5/9: −22 × 5/9 = −12.22 °C.

Questions people ask
What is 10 °F in °C?
10 °F is −12.22 °C.
Is 10 °F above body temperature?
No. It is 88.6 °F below it. The generally accepted average normal body temperature is 37 °C (98.6 °F).
How do I estimate 10 °F in °C in my head?
Take away 30 and halve. That gives −10 °C. The exact value is −12.22 °C, so the error is 2.2 °C.
