🌡️Thermometer Emoji

🌡️ thermometer — U+1F321 U+FE0F, added in Unicode 7.0 (2014). Unicode groups it with the other 47 weather emojis under Travel & Places.

What 🌡️ thermometer means

Weather doubles as mood throughout. 🔥 long ago stopped meaning fire and now means excellent; 🌊 and ⚡ intensify rather than describe; 🌈 reads as LGBTQ+ pride at least as often as weather. Unicode encodes all eight lunar phases as separate characters, plus four moons with faces, and 🌚 is used mainly for deadpan mischief.

Unicode tags this one weather and files it under Travel & Places → Weather.

Copy variants
