"The temperature was in the nineties" - in 1551? I don't think so. Mr Fahrenheit didn't come along with his scale until 1724. There's no point grumbling at the late great Dorothy, but honestly...

(Side issue: apparently only the United States, the Cayman Islands and Belize still cling to Fahrenheit as their official temperature scale. Any idea why? Bueller? Anyone? Bueller?)
