Cum se calculează Heat Index Calc
Ce este Heat Index Calc?
The heat index (also called apparent temperature or feels-like temperature in summer) estimates how hot it actually feels based on air temperature and relative humidity. High humidity prevents sweat from evaporating effectively, reducing the body's ability to cool itself. The Rothfusz (1990) regression equation used by NOAA and the NWS is the most widely accepted formula.
