When a commercial or military plane is fueled, the quantity of fuel pumped into the aircraft is measured in pounds (or kilograms), not gallons or liters, because the weight of the fuel doesn't change depending upon the temperature, whereas its volume changes with temperature. In other words, six pounds of fuel is six pounds of fuel, whether it is arctic cold or desert hot. Volume, on the other hand, varies with temperature. For every five-degree (Celsius) increase in temperature, the volume increases about 0.5 percent. For pilots taking on hundreds of pounds of fuel at a time and for whom running out of fuel is a grave concern, that matters. But for motorists, it matters little. Theoretically, a gallon of gas pumped at 80 degrees Fahrenheit will weigh less -- and therefore contain less energy -- than a gallon of gas pumped at, say, 60 degrees F (which is a common temperature standard), but for all practical purposes, the difference is negligible. Presumably, motorists who are "shortchanged" on 80-degree days will make up their theoretical losses on the 40-degree days. Moreover, it is not possible to say with certainty that the temperature of the gas is actually cooler -- and therefore denser -- in the morning. Most modern underground tanks are double walled, which provides a degree of insulation, making the tanks act somewhat like a thermos. If the tank was recently filled with warm gasoline form a tanker truck, it may stay warm for days, regardless of the time of day and the temperature of ground. Wow, this must be an oil rep's answer above,..lol. Yes, you are shorted in warm weather, read what the answer says above about it being made up for on a colder day, this is a myth.

-273.15 C
-459.67 F
The idea is to start at absolute zero - the lowest possible temperature. This happens to be -273.16 on the Centigrade (Celsius) scale. The Kelvin scale has no negative temperatures; zero degrees Kelvin is the lowest possible temperature.

The lowest temperature on record for Lubbock Texas was -17 degrees °f on February 8, 1933.
Typically the lowest temperature that gasoline will produce enough vapors to ignite at is -40 degrees Fahrenheit.
My car said -12.5 degrees C this morning
The low temperature is based on the night's lowest point in temperature E.G. If the minimum on Wednesday is -4 Celsius, it is the lowest temperature point during Wednesday night (starting at sunset) until early Thursday morning (until about sunrise). The lowest point may not be mid-way as it can vary anyway as predicted weather and climate isn't always what is definitely going to be
Just as the sun is coming up in the morning, is usually when the low occurs.
'Murica
Pluto is not the lowest temperature. The lowest temperature possible is −273.15°C. Pluto's coldest temperature is about −233°C.
what is the lowest temperature in a mangrove swamp
the lowest temperature is 5,000 degrees Celsius
jupiter highest and lowest temperature
the lowest recorded temperature of karachi
i think gasoline
The lowest temperature is typically recorded during the early morning hours, closer to sunrise, when temperatures have had the chance to drop overnight. Sunset marks the end of the day and temperatures tend to be warmer at that time.
