Outside temp guage

Do your outside temp guages read 1/2 degrees,south of the 49th?
Up here our celsius guages read .5 degrees,like 20.5C.
Got my first cold /ice warning this morning,,,,-3.5C,or about 26F

26F? And I thought it was cold here. We've been having mornings in the low 40s, high 30s. Warms up to high 60s by mid-day though.

But, to answer your question, on my 05, the temp is in F, of course and no half degrees.

On U.S. models the temperature gauge located on the tachometer chimes and flashes when it reaches 37 degrees to warn of the potential for black ice. If it is already below that temperature when you start up the car the chime sounds and the temperature reading flashes about three times.

I see your from Florida so you'll never get to use it !

Down here they need to have a wind meter and chime so we can tell when to install plywood over our windshield.
