thermometer 🌡️ - OzVoca Emoji Details
thermometer
The thermometer emoji indicates the temperature when the weather is hot or cold. You can use it when talking about today's weather.
This emoji is often used with the ☀️ (sun) emoji to express heat, and with the ❄️ (snowflake) emoji to express cold. It's an easy way to show what the weather is like.
Besides weather, it's used when you're sick and have a fever, like "I'm sick 🌡️." It's also used metaphorically when the atmosphere between people gets heated or an argument intensifies.
Recently, it's also used online to indicate a "hot" topic or a controversial opinion, i.e., a "hot take." It can also refer to a "thermometer graph" that visually shows the progress of a fundraiser or project, so it's useful for showing that a goal is getting closer.
