C is the sign for coulomb which is the unit of electric charge. How about 'deg C'?
I'll note that in Linux there's seemingly nothing consistent, and I'm fine with any of "deg C" or "degrees C" or "temperature range (-40 C to +85 C)" as all of those should be clear in context.
My 2 cents ... while I agree with Tom that the context will make it clear, it is not making it correct nor nice. Using just "C" for Celsius degrees is horrible ...
FWIW, I usually use "oC", which is far from perfect, but IMHO also far from horrible. :)
"oC" is also horrible, "deg C" or "degrees C" that Heinrich proposed are the way to go if you need something 7-bit ascii :-).
