Because they are conservative. The rest of the world, apart form Burma and Liberia, have adopted the SI system because it is a far superior system of measurement but the US stubbornly does not view that as progress.

USA uses Fahrenheit, Great Britain uses Celsius
Celsius. Virtually everyone in the world except for the USA does.
Apply the Fahrenheit to Celsius conversion in revers: Multiply Celsius temperature with 9 and divide it by five. Then, add 32 = Fahrenheit temperature.
Use this formula for converting Celsius to Fahrenheit: (C x 1.8) +32 = F216.7 x 1.8 = 390.06390.06 + 32 = 422.06216.7 degrees Celsius = 422.06 degrees Fahrenheit

Americans are the only ones that use Fahrenheit to measure temperature. Everyone else uses Celsius.
The weather bureau in AU began to use Celsius instead of Fahrenheit temperature scale in 1960's just like the US.
