To find the temperature at noon, we start with the initial temperature of -7°F and add the increase of 25°F.
\[ \text{Noon temperature} = \text{Initial temperature} + \text{Increase} = -7°F + 25°F \]
Calculating this step:
\[ -7 + 25 = 18 \]
Therefore, the temperature at noon was
\[ \boxed{18} \text{F} \]
