To Convert Between Celsius anf Fahrenheit:
Multiply your Celsius number by 1.8 and add 32 to get Fahrenheit.
Subtract 32 from your Fahrenheit number and devide by 1.8 to get Celsius.
To Calculate Lapse Rate: Find the expected high at 6000 feet. If the reading is 2822 +09 (eg. 9 degrees) subract that from the expected high for the day at sea level (eg 25 degrees). So 25-9=16 degrees. Then divide that by 6 (for 6k) = 2.7. Since 2 degrees celsius/1000 ft is the stable lapse rate, anything over 2 is good and over 3 is insane.
