Short Final: Freezing Level

0

After I heard a GA pilot expressing concern about getting into icing conditions, I responded to air traffic control:

Me: “PIREP for the 172 concerned about icing, the freezing level over Santa Cruz summit is 5,000 feet.”

NorCal Approach: “What was the OAT?”

Me: “Well, uh, that would be zero degrees Celsius.”
