'Most certainly noticeable'??? Hmm... I'm sorry, Norm, but I don't think so! At least I can't tell, even between say 17 or 18 degrees.
Perhaps you're overreacting. In any case, I'd say that 2 degrees seems reasonable to use as a benchmark. I.e., your 'most certainly noticeable' should read 2 degrees instead (and, BTW, that's in *Celsius*!...)
