About this heat index calculator

Humid air slows sweat evaporation, so the body feels hotter than the thermometer says. The NWS uses the Rothfusz regression with small corrections for very low and very high humidity. 90°F with 70% relative humidity feels like 106°F, in the Danger band (103-124°F) where heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely.
