The Fahrenheit scale (named for Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit) was used in the English system of measurement, until generally replaced by the Celsius (centigrade) scale.

Fahrenheit is still used in the US, but almost exclusively for:

- public weather statements (air temperatures and dew points)

- body temperatures

- oven temperatures
