TD_washingtonredskins Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Wouldnt it be easier to have............. heat what it really feels like ...... Probably! But, I'm assuming it's actually an index that combines the two factors. There's probably a chart somewhere that tells you what the HI is when the air temperature is 90 and the relative humidity is 55%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pjfootballer Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 It really aggrevates me that every time the local stations issue a T-Storm warning, they always add in "damaging winds" and "hail" with their report. Not all T-Storms have damaging winds and hail. Seems like they just say it so if it happens, they can say that they were right and if it doesn't they're no worse for wear. We're having them in Charlotte as I type this and I heard a little thunder, saw zero lightning and no "winds or hail" to speak of. Just a nice spring soaking.
