Apparent temperature
Videos
Apparent temperature, also known as "feels like", is the temperature equivalent perceived by humans, caused by the combined effects of air temperature, relative humidity and wind speed. The measure is
Instrument face indicating the value of the heat index at the intersection of its two hands (indicating temperature and relative humidity), with a chart showing windchill according to the temperature (indicated) and wind speed (acquired by some other method)
Wet-bulb globe temperature

The wet-bulb globe temperature is a measure of environmental heat as it affects humans and animals. Unlike a simple temperature measurement, WBGT accounts for air temperature, humidity, heat radiation
Apparent temperature
…of the human body below 10 °C (50 °F). As airflow increases over the skin, more heat will be removed. Standard models and conditions are used. The wet-bulb globe temperature (WBGT) combines the effects of radiation (typically sunlight), humidity, temperature and wind speed on the perception of temperature. It is not often…
