The temperature converter translates values between Celsius (°C), Fahrenheit (°F), and Kelvin (K). Type a number into any field and the other scales update instantly.

Celsius is the standard in most countries and everyday life. Fahrenheit is used in the US, so conversion is handy when reading American recipes (an oven at 350 °F ≈ 177 °C), weather forecasts, or instructions. Kelvin is the scientific scale, where 0 K is absolute zero (−273.15 °C); it's used in physics and to describe the color temperature of lighting.

Conversion formulas: °F = °C × 9/5 + 32; K = °C + 273.15. Useful reference points: 0 °C = 32 °F (water freezes), 100 °C = 212 °F (water boils), a comfortable 20 °C = 68 °F, and body temperature 37 °C ≈ 98.6 °F. Calculations run right in your browser, instantly, with no data sent anywhere.
