How to convert -30 °C to °F
Use the formula °F = (°C × 9/5) + 32 and substitute -30 for °C:
°F = (-30 × 9/5) + 32°F = -54 + 32°F = -22
So -30 °C = -22 °F.
What does -30 °C mean?
-30 °C is very cold weather, well below the freezing point of water. It is typical of a hard winter in northern climates; warm layers, gloves and a hat are essential outdoors.

- -30 °F
For -30 °C the quick “double it and add 30” estimate gives -30 °F — 8 °F too low. The shortcut works best between about 0 °C and 20 °C; use the exact formula for anything that matters.

The Celsius to Fahrenheit formula
°F = (°C × 9/5) + 32
Multiply the Celsius temperature by 9/5 (1.8) because a Celsius degree is 1.8 times larger than a Fahrenheit degree, then add 32 because water freezes at 32 °F rather than 0 °F. To go the other way, use °C = (°F − 32) × 5/9 — for example, -22 °F back to Celsius gives -30 °C.
