Anatomy of the human skin. Skin temperature is the temperature of the outermost surface of the body. Normal human skin temperature on the trunk of the body varies between 33.5 and 36.9 °C (92.3 and 98.4 °F), though the skin's temperature is lower over protruding parts, like the nose, and higher over muscles and active organs.

A medical thermometer showing a temperature reading of 38.7 °C (101.7 °F) Taking a human's temperature is an initial part of a full clinical examination. There are various types of medical thermometers, as well as sites used for measurement, including: In the rectum (rectal temperature) In the mouth (oral temperature)
Timeline of postmortem changes, with algor mortis represented by red temperature line. Algor mortis (from Latin algor 'coldness' and mortis 'of death'), the third stage of death, is the change in body temperature post mortem, until the ambient temperature is matched.
A temperature interval of 1 °F was equal to an interval of 5 ⁄ 9 degrees Celsius. With the Fahrenheit and Celsius scales now both defined by the kelvin, this relationship was preserved, a temperature interval of 1 °F being equal to an interval of 5 ⁄ 9 K and of 5 ⁄ 9 °C. The Fahrenheit and Celsius scales intersect numerically at −40 ...

Since an increment of temperature of one degree Celsius is the same as an increment of one kelvin, that is the same as joule per degree Celsius per kilogram: J/(kg⋅°C). Sometimes the gram is used instead of kilogram for the unit of mass: 1 J⋅g −1 ⋅K −1 = 1000 J⋅kg −1 ⋅K −1 .
British settlers in Hyde Park woke up to snow "nearly 1 in (2.5 cm) deep", with the meteorological table in The Sydney Herald recording that on the morning of the snow the temperature dropped to 3 °C (37 °F). [15] 1857. New England Cold wave of 1857. January 1857 was the coldest month ever recorded in New England.
Volcanic stones, such as basalt, are placed in hot water, typically at temperatures between 40 and 60 degrees Celsius (100 to 140 degrees Fahrenheit). Stones can also be placed in chilled water to achieve a temperature between -5 to 25 degrees Celsius (25 to 75 degrees Fahrenheit).
