By counting the number of chirps by crickets in 14 seconds and multiplying it with 40 will let us determine the current temperature in Fahrenheit.

The information by the LOC confirms that the number of chirps per 15 seconds would be added to the number 37 to compute the Fahrenheit temperature.

The information by the LOC confirms that the number of chirps per 15 seconds would be added to the number 37 to compute the Fahrenheit temperature.Articles clarified that approximate air temperature in Fahrenheit could be calculated by adding the number of chirps that would be created by crickets within 15 seconds and the number 37. It added that the frequency of chirping would vary according to temperature changes.

U.S Forest Service mentioned that Tree crickets were known as the thermometer of nature as because temperature variations would directly affect their rate of activity.

Thus, the temperature in degrees of Fahrenheit is calculated by adding the number of chirps per 15 seconds and the number 37, not by multiplication of the number of chirps within 14 seconds and number 40.
