There is a difference. But it's a such a mild difference, that it'll not be immediately noticable. Unless you were at -44°F and it goes to -29°F. The difference is noticable. It'll be not as biting. But it's still cold enough to be aware of it.
This morning I stomped a path through 18 inches of snow with a thick layer of crust on it so that I have somewhere to go for a walk. It took about 4 times around to get the path formed. My dog and I can do laps around the yard since there is too much snow, ice, and salt to go elsewhere at the moment. Got my workout for the day making the path.
I just heard last night that in another week we may experience a high of 67F (19.4C). LOL, thought that was wild until I checked out the actual record highs this time of year.

Really cold is when the snow crunches, when you walk on it.
Negative nine right now wife went out to get another battery for electric snow shovel only lasts 1 hour. Cold does not bother me t shirt heavy coat is it for me. Left leg hurts now since stroke sensitive to cold.
Reminds me of every time there is a "wind chill factor" reported.
When air temperature is barely tolerable, but the wind....downright painful!
Most countries in the world switched in the 60s and 70s, 1970 for us. There's only 3 countries in the world the don't use the metric system - Myanmar, Equatorial Guinnea, and the US.
Winter in North Texas? Just roll a pair of dice, not much of a difference. A few days of freezing weather, then highs in the 70s (Fahrenheit, that is) for a few days, then close to freezing but not quite, back to upper 60s (still in Fahrenheit), then down to the teens. That's only an example, mind you. At least summers here are pretty predictable: hot, really hot (triple digit temperatures), then waiting for hell to freeze over so you'll finally stop sweating for a change.
I don't know how any of you further up north (as in, the Northern Hemisphere) handle it so well, but when something like this happens where I live, it's an apocalyptic event. More so when there's anything frozen on the roads.

Today started out in the single digits, 6 F. Happily it stopped snowing for the first time in three days. We have gotten lots of light, dry snow that puts one in a whiteout on the back roads when you pass a car going in the opposite direction.
Driving a car that I maintain for winter driving (Michelin X-Ice tires also) I will get a soda and popcorn to watch videos of southern drivers coping with snowy roads that cause no difficulty here.

Should be 0 C next week , lots of snow will disappear main problem will be walking through puddles on side walk.
Never worry about wind chill, just put on toque. To cover ears, and mitts rather and gloves, so fingers keep them selves warm. After all using a snow mobile really causes wind chill.Reminds me of every time there is a "wind chill factor" reported.

How is it easy peasy? I've never been able to make sense of F. We use C here in Australia.
If you can't mentally make the conversion, there are many charts and explanations all over the internet you can learn from.
Just type into a search engine text box, "67 degrees Fahrenheit into Celsius".
Or vice-versa. Voila...only way I can keep up. I can sort of convert metric distances in my head, but not temps or volume.
The south rarely gets snow so the states do not maintain expensive equipment to plow roads that need plowing only once every five years or so. Southerners certainly don't buy snow tires or chains since we wouldn't need them except once in every ten years or so. Southerners like to watch northerners freak out over heavy rains, high winds, tornadoes or ambient temperatures in excess of 90 degrees F. Couldn't imagine what panic would ensure if northerners faced a cat 4 hurricane!
I have used F, C, K and R I like relating what I can see with what I Can feel ) C is cool also snow melts. what is better than that. My brother worked in the Caribbean for a few years installing phone systems did not like first hurricane. He was also stationed way north military base for a while, then a few days later moved to base in middle east. Like He said to me -30 at 30 in a week.
