The old saying goes, “It’s not the heat, it’s the humidity.” Well, when it comes to calculating comfort index – the “apparent” temperature (the temperature your body actually feels) – it’s both the heat and the humidity. For example, if the air temperature is 85 degrees and the humidity is 20%, the apparent temperature is 82 degrees -3 degrees cooler. To the other extreme, if the air temperature is 85 degrees and the humidity is 90%, it actually feels like 102 degrees – 17 degrees warmer.
