Conversion Tables

Imperial/American to Metric (Fahrenheit to Celsius/centigrade) conversions for length and area, air, body and oven temperatures, and US to UK to Euro clothing conversion tables.

Officially Thailand uses the metric system of measurement for units and weights. However, distance, size, area and weight are frequently quoted in either Imperial (pounds, yards, feet and inches) or metric (kilogrammes, metres and centimetres). Temperature is measured in degrees Celsius.

Thailand's Ministry of Energy has further information on the measurement system: Click here

Temperature Conversion

Temperature
Convert Fahrenheit to Celsius		(degrees F - 32) x 0.555		degrees C
Convert Celsius to Fahrenheit		(degrees C x 1.8) + 32		degrees F
Water Boils at		212° F		100° C
Normal body temperature		98.6° F		37° C
Water Freezes at		32° F		0° C
Room temperature		68° F		20° C
Air Temperatures: degrees Celsius (C) to degrees Fahrenheit (F)
0° C = 32° F	5° C = 41° F		10° C = 50° F		15° C = 59° F
20° C = 68° F	25° C = 77° F		30° C = 86° F		35° C = 95° F
