It is represented by the symbol °C. daytime temperatures of up to forty degrees centigrade. = Celsius Centigrade is also a noun.

Temperature scale proposed by Swedish astronomer Anders Celsius in 1742 A mixture of ice and water is zero on the scale; boiling water is designated as 100 degrees A degree is defined as one hundredth of the difference between the two reference points, resulting in the term centigrade (100th part)
