It is used for cooking in Canada even today. Here’s a UK weather report from 1987 that uses both Celsius and Fahrenheit: https://youtu.be/NnxjZ-aFkjs. Celsius is the default but there are living people in the UK who recall using the Fahrenheit scale. This is much less common outside the commonwealth.

An example from 1987 isn't particularly a good example.

The BBC's weather reports are all in Celcius: https://www.bbc.com/weather/2643743

It’s a good example of “living memory”. You won’t find an example like this outside the commonwealth.
