Another quick estimation is to double the Celsius number and add 30.
Gets you close with very little brainpower.

-10C is actually +14F. The conversion formula is:

F = 9/5 C + 32

or

C = 5/9(F - 32)

It's helpful to remember a few points along the scale to get a quick
reference rather than having to do math in your head:

-40C = -40F
-18C = 0F
0C = 32F
10C = 50F
20C = 68F
30C = 86F
