minus 3 degrees means that it's three degrees below freezing. So if you are measuring in celsius then it would be -3 degrees since freezing is zero degrees celsius. If you are measuring in Fahrenheit then it would be 29 degrees since 32 degrees is freezing.

∙ 13y agoAs far as I know, when Americans say it's "3 below", they mean it's 3 degrees Fahrenheit below the point of freezing (32 degrees). So it would mean 29 degrees in your example. In Canada, when we say it's "minus 3" it means it is 3 degrees Celsius below 0 degrees Celsius, which is set at the point of freezing (32 degrees F). I hope that most people in the US know that 20 below does not mean minus 20 degrees F! It means 12 degrees F.
