What is RealFeel Temperature(tm)?
The Exclusive AccuWeather RealFeel Temperature is an index that describes what the temperature really feels like. It is a unique composite of the effects of temperature, wind, humidity, sunshine intensity, cloudiness, precipitation and elevation on the human body--everything that affects how warm or cold a person feels.
Only The RealFeel Temperature includes everything that affects how warm or cold a person feels.
For example, on a steamy Agni Natchathiram, without a breath of wind, with the noon sun beating down, the official temperature (which is measured in the shade) may be 104 F degrees. But when you stand outside in the scorching sun, it may feel like 118 F degrees. In contrast, when the official temperature is 104 F degrees with a nice breeze blowing and low humidity, with bright sunshine but late in the day so the sun intensity is not as strong, it may feel like 90 F degrees.
