I came across this today on my "Wit & Wisdom of Fishing" perpetual calendar and found it somewhat amuesing, so I thought I would share it with you all.


"If you are ice fishing in zero-degree weather, and it's supposed to be twice as cold tomorrow, how cold will it be?"

to cold for me to be fishing:eek:

[Downstate Doug]

OK, I'll bite. -33F

[STEINFISHSKI]

in sound off forum...Where did the dollar go?

My guess is 0 degrees.

[flannelfish]

does it depend on the wind chill?

[PrtyMolusk]

Howdy-

I'll bet it's cold enough to freeze the balls off a brass monkey!

(See post 'Connon Balls' on "Sound Off" board)

A wink and a nod to SFK

-32 degrees F;)

Simple mind, simple answer. Zero twice (X's 2) is zero but I like outdooralex's answer best.

[Tattoo Mike]

OK my guess is -32.08 F

How I got that was 0 F = -17.8 C
-17.8 x 2 = -35.6 C
the conversion from C to F is 9/5 x c +32
so -35.6 x 9 = -320.4 divided by 5 = -64.08 + 32 = -32.08 F

for us hillybilly's weee going to need amother gunny sack in the amorning:eek: aint that righh

[SPORTSMAN]

[Major Hamhocks]

tatoo Mike,

you have way too much time. Great answer though...I am kind of a mathematically minded person myself. Can relate totally. I still think you have too many math books in your home library

Lol really it took me, my wife, my father in law and my daughters science book. I knew the anwser it just took us a while to proove it.

[Rat Faced Mcdougal]

To get the answer you would need to know at what temperature it stops being warm and it starts being cold...scientifically I dont know what temp that is, however I feel the ideal temperature without wind is 68*F....so.....twice as cold would be -68*f!!!!!!!!

0 fahrenheit = -17.78 celcius

2x-17.78=-35.56celcius

-35.56 celcius=-32 fahrenheit
